TEA JAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• I purposely did not use quantity. You can make as much as you need.
• Mix 1 part butter with 2 parts cream cheese.
• Stack bread and trim crusts. Save crusts for another recipe or to make bread crumbs.
• Spread 1 slice with butter/cream cheese. Spread your jam or chutney. Top with another slice. Press down with your hand.
• Cut in squares, rectangles or triangles.
• Enjoy.

ENGLISH TEA FINGER SANDWICHES (3 RECIPES!)

Steps:

• Prepare each sandwich filling by adding all the ingredients to separate bowls. (3 total) Mix each using a silicone spatula. (they work best!) Keep in mind that using room temperature butter and cream cheese will make mixing much easier!
• Once your 3 fillings are ready, set out your bread slices and start spreading your filling generously onto each side of your bread.
• *Note* I used a TOTAL of 18 slices of bread. I laid out 6 slices for EACH filling. This gave me 3 large sandwiches with EACH filling. (Total of 9.) I then cut each of the 9 finished sandwiches into TWO triangles giving me a total of 18 tea sandwiches triangles to serve or 6 each. If you want to QUARTER your tea sandwiches you can. You should then get twice the amount (36 total).
• Trim the ends of your cucumbers and then cut each into thirds (or half) depending how long your cucumbers are. (The idea is to cut them lengthwise first before you start slicing them down. We want about 4" chunks so that when we slice them, they fit nicely onto your bread. (See photos). Finally, you can slice each chunk into slices about 1/16" thick. Your yield will differ than mine depending upon the size of your cucumbers. Aim for about 4-5 slices per sandwich! (See photos for reference!)

PB&J TEA SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Combine the peanut butter, mascarpone, honey and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Using a rubber spatula, mix everything together until smooth and evenly combined.
• Spread 10 slices of pound cake with 1 tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture. Then spread with 1 teaspoon grape jelly. Complete the sandwiches with a second slice of pound cake. Use a 1 1/2-inch fluted round cutter to cut out little finger sandwiches.
