Smoked Salmon with Cream Cheese and Cucumber Slices
Livened up with a zingy horseradish and dill cream cheese, these simple yet fancy Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Cucumber Bites are crunchy, creamy finger food food perfection!
Ingredients
- 2 English Cucumbers peeled and cut into 1" rounds
- 1 pound smoked salmon cut into bite sized pieces
- 1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
- 3 tablespoons fresh dill chopped
- 1 tablespoon Horseradish more or less to taste
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream optional
- Toothpicks or tiny party forks
Instructions
- Peel cucumbers and slice them into 1" circles. Arrange on a platter as desired. Place in the refrigerator while preparing the cream cheese.
- Place cream cheese, dill, horseradish, and cream in a large bowl. Beat until well combined (a handheld mixer really helps here.)

- Serve at once, or keep in the refrigerator until needed.
