Tea Time Herbed Cream Cheese Sandwiches

I like to use herbs fresh from the garden or my local market. You can use parsley, watercress, basil, chervil or chives by themselves or in any combination. I prepare the cream cheese mixture in advance several hours and I always let it come to room temperature before spreading it on the bread.

INGREDIENTS

1 Cup Softened Cream Cheese

½ Cup Chopped Herb Leaves

1 Tablespoon Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice

½ Teaspoon Hot Pepper Sauce

½ Teaspoon Paprika

8 Slices Wheat or White Bread With Crusts Removed

In a small sized mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, herbs, lemon juice and hot pepper sauce. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the mixture on each slice of bread. Sprinkle with paprika. Put the slices together to make 4 sandwiches. Using a serrated knife, cut them diagonally into quarters. Makes 16 tea sandwiches.
