Easy Cucumber Party Sandwiches

4.8
(50)

These easy, beautiful, yummy cucumber party sandwiches are perfect for brunches, tea parties, or spring and summer lunches. They can be prepared ahead of time and assembled just before serving. This is an easy appetizer to prepare the day before, except for the assembly. The cream cheese mixture is even better after about 8 hours. Feel free to experiment with the dressing; we prefer the buttermilk dressing, but ranch or Italian works great, too. Also, cocktail bread can be substituted for the hand-cut bread, which will save 10 to 15 minutes.
