This cucumber finger sandwich filling was created by Jenny Benedict, a popular caterer in Louisville, KY way back when. Now, it is a Kentucky favorite and dang near a recipe you MUST have on the table for a Derby party. This is pretty for St. Patty's Day and is so much better than a plain ole cucumber slice on a piece of bread. Cook time is chill time. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese |
2 tablespoons grated onions |
1/4 cup mayonnaise (miracle whip does not work!) |
1 medium cucumber (the english variety works well) |
1 -3 drop green food coloring |
Directions:
1. Peel and seed the cucumber: put in a food chopper and chop until very VERY VERY fine.
2. In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients.
3. Add food coloring to desired shade.
4. Cover and refrigerate at least one hour before serving.
