Kentucky Benedictine Tea Sandwiches

(8-oz.) packages cream cheese,

peeled, seeded, and finely chopped cucumber

green onions

dill

mayonnaise

salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

bread

Stir together first 7 ingredients. Spread mixture on 1 side of 24 bread slices; top with remaining 24 bread slices. Trim crusts from sandwiches; cut each sandwich into 4 triangles with a serrated knife.


Pair with: Baumard Savenni&egrave;res or Oregon Pinot Gris.


Watercress...and of course, not mentioned...so the photo stylist must have thought no one would notice.  LOL  That's right...none of them are true cooks.

I followed the recipe and it turned out great although I think I would cut back on the amount of green onions and bump up the dill a bit more. The green onion was overpowering with this one.

It's watercress, not sprouts. Add it to the sandwiches if you can get it.

These were great at a church reception. My plate was the first one cleared from the entire buffet table! My one alteration: I seeded one whole hothouse cucumber but didn't peel it. Then I grated it on the bigger holes on a box grater (directions from another cucumber sandwich recipe), rather than finely chopping the cucumber. I don't know why the picture shows sprouts, when they're clearly not in the recipe.

what is the greeny leafy veggie I see peeking out on the picture by the recipe?

So easy to make and exactly the flavors I'd expect from a cucumber sandwich.  Yum!

I've had cucumber sandwiches before but these were more interesting without having too many flavors going on.  I made them for a girls' party and everyone loved them!
