Cut a 5 cm thick cone from the stem side. Remove the cores without going all the way down. Cut around the lower third to prevent them from opening during pressure cooking. Place the apples in an Express Pressure Cooker®. Drizzle with 1/4 cup of honey and the juice of 1/2 lemon. Pour in the apple juice and the rum. Add the clove, star anise, and cinnamon sticks. Close the Express Pressure Cooker® and attach the pressure regulator, place it on the stove over high heat for 25 minutes approximately or until a constant steam comes out, lower the heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes, depending on the size of the apples. Remove the Express Pressure Cooker® from the heat, let it cool, remove the pressure regulator, open the Express Pressure Cooker® and you're done! The apples should feel soft when poked with a fork. Crumble the cheese and measure 1/2 cup; set aside the remaining cheese for garnish. In a small bowl, mash the blue cheese, one tablespoon of honey, the pepper, and the cream. Fill the apples with this mixture. Garnish the apples with the blue cheese you reserved and a little pepper. Drizzle with some of the juices and serve.
