Creamy Cucumber Tea Sandwiches

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 0 minutes
Chilling Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 8 slices soft white bread, crusts removed
  • 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1–2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the spread: Mix softened cream cheese with chopped dill, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
  2. Prepare the cucumber: Slice the cucumber very thinly. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  3. Assemble: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bread slices. Arrange cucumber slices in an even layer and top with another slice of bread.
  4. Cut: Gently press the sandwiches and trim off the crusts. Cut each sandwich into neat triangles or squares.
  5. Chill & serve: Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes for a fresh, crisp texture. Garnish with extra dill and serve.

Tip: For extra flavor, add a tiny squeeze of lemon juice to the cream cheese mixture.
