Dainty Cucumber Dill Sandwiches:
These cute and classy little bites are simple to make,
but are impressive enough to serve at a formal tea.
Ingredients:
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 pkt. Dillicious Dill Dip Mix, unprepared
1 loaf sliced bread (white, wheat, or a light rye)
1 medium cucumber, peeled (if necessary) and sliced thin
Directions:
1. With an electric mixer, beat together the cream cheese and Dill Dip Mix. Set aside at room temperature.
2. Arrange half of the slices of bread on a cookie sheet.
3. Spread a layer of dill cream cheese over each slice of bread.
4. Top each slice of bread with 4 cucumber slices, trying not to overlap the cucumbers.
5. Place the remaining bread slices over the cucumbers, making sandwiches. (This step can be eliminated if you wish to make canapes.)
6. Using a cookie cutter or glass, cut as many shapes out of each sandwich as you can, making sure you do not get any crust in the shape.
7. Arrange the sandwiches on a platter.
8. Cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to serve.
