Notes

    • Be sure to start with softened cream cheese to prevent lumps in the cream cheese smear.
    • Party loaf is found in the specialty bread section at the grocery store. Use either rye party bread or pumpernickel party loaf.
    • Be sure these do not sit out for more than 4 hours since they contain cream cheese.
    • If your cucumbers are small, layer a couple thinner cucumber slices on one slice of party loaf.
    • A mandoline works great for slicing cucumbers. Watch those fingers!
