I was asked to make these for a wedding reception a few months ago and have been asked to make them a couple more times for different events since then. It's a great small, fresh, easy, inexpensive appetizer to make for a crowd. They are pretty cute as well. You can never go wrong with fresh dill and fresh crisp cucumbers. There are so many variations you can do with the recipe. I think this one is just old school. It's what my mother would make. Sometimes that's all you need.
This is a great one to make in a pinch because it is so easy. Only 5 ingredients!
1 8 ounce tub whipped cream cheese
1 7 ounce package dry Italian~style salad dressing mix
1 loaf cocktail rye bread, you could also use Pumpernickel
1 cucumber thinly sliced
fresh dill for garnish
In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese and salad dressing. Spread on the bread slices. Top with a slice or two of cucumber. I like two, I think it looks nicer. Garnish with dill. Refrigerate until serving.
