A big hit with the tea party ladies! The ham and relish is a classic filling and I was glad to find it here. I also made some with cheese spread rolled around pickles and cheese with asparagus as well as cream cheese with chopped maraschinos. I found a few more tips on preparing these little goodies in Recipe #364560. Will be making more of these soon for my daughter's upcoming wedding shower. Thanks, Olga.
