Summer Sandwiches

These little beauties are perfect for warm days. The whipped cream has just the right spice to it and the cucumbers are cool & crisp. You can make the whipped cream a day ahead of time, but don't assemble the sandwiches until shortly before you plan to serve them. They go together in a snap. Your girlfriends will love these.



8 ounce package whipped cream cheese, softened to room temp.
.7 ounce package dry Italian-style salad dressing mix
1 pound loaf cocktail rye bread
1 cucumber, thinly sliced

In a small bowl, mix whipped cream cheese and dry Italian-style dressing mix. Spread equal portions of the mixture on slices of the cocktail rye bread. Top each with a slice of cucumber.
