Ingredients
  

  • 16 slices white or whole-wheat sandwich bread
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 large cucumber thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Pat the cucumber slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, dill, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over one side of each bread slice.
  • Arrange cucumber slices over half of the bread slices in an even layer.
  • Top with the remaining bread slices, spread-side down.
  • Trim off the crusts if desired, then cut each sandwich into halves, triangles, or small finger sandwiches.
  • Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

Drying the cucumber well helps prevent soggy sandwiches. Add lemon zest or chives for a brighter flavor.
