Stuffed Dill Pickles

These caused quite a bit of conversation at our picnic - and none were leftover. I added a can of deviled ham to the cream cheese (I have always loved the pickles wrapped with cream cheese and ham) so this is the exact opposite. I used your pickle corer, and it worked great. Thanks!

I forgot to write this after trying them.

They were fantastic, I did use a dash of dried dill, just a dash in the cream cheese and then I since I serve them for a party I added a light pinch of paprika just for some color. Loved them. So different and fun
---------------------------

UPDATE!

Made them 2x since I last posted and making again in a few days for a Holiday get together. They are so unique, great tasting, but they become a conversation piece which is really fun.

I used my own refrigerator pickles, but I used Claussen the first time. I used the chilled ones because they are much crisper to me.

I also used a doll rod. A simple doll rod from the craft store or a home depot. I used a knife and sharpened the end a bit, but it works amazing, Just poke through. I think the wood rod was 30 cents. I did estimate how thick it should be before I got the rod and I got 3 sizes. It does vary on the pickle size. But they certainly are cheap and they work perfect. I just clean mine well in a little bleach and then in the dishwasher.

The last time I made a platter of 3 kinds and I will try to take a pic this time.
- I added smoked salmon in one, and I did use a herb cream cheese, but I did add the onion, but not the hot sauce to the one with salmon.
- The second one I used the herb cream cheese, and again added the onion and hot sauce.
- The third one, I used the herb cheese, but added diced olives, onion and hot sauce.

Everyone loved all three. I added a little dill to each one, but not much. I love the paprika sprinkled on the top, but very very light. You can barely see it, it is just a little color is all.

DELICIOUS DELICIOUS!! 10 STARS FOR ME.

My sisters mother in law made something very similar to this, however, she took an un-split sandwich roll, hollowed out the middle, smeared a thick layer of cream cheese inside and stuffed it with a pickle spear. One of my very favorite snacks!

These were good, guests were pleased to have a new tidbit on the appetizer plate. I used an apple corer and it worked great. I used a 100% cotton tea towel to remove any liquid in the cut out area, a wooden spoon pushed it through great. I used a heavy zip lock bag with the corner snipped off to put the filling in. I used the left over pickle core in some egg salad then next day. Thank you for the recipe. Debbie T.

It was really really delicious!! If there is pickles this is really simple and very tasty. This was a hit of the whole family and my friends! Everyone was asking for the recipe! And it was so good I had to share this recipe with my friends! Cream cheese, garlic, and chopped onion, they adds a great gourmet flavor! Because I had lost cake decorator, I let dill pickles stand straight, and I stood in a hand and stuffed it into the hole while rubbing the mixture of the cream cheese. And they were stuffed easily. Next time, I intend to add smoked salmon and an olive for additional texture and flavor as you say. And I intend to make cream cheese and cottage cheese the same amount. I'll be making frequently these. Uncle Bill, Thanks for posting.

Great but tough recipe! It takes some work but is well worth the effort. Have made them twice now. I used an apple corer. If you can get your hands on a pickle corer the process would be much easier. The first time i placed a pimento in the middle for presentation. The next time i sliced up a black olive and placed the pimento and olive in the center.

These were delicious and actually kind of fun to make. The only thing I added is some dry barbeque rub. "Corky's". After placing the finished slices on a platter, I lightly sprinkled with the dry rub. Served to the kids when they got home from school and they were surprised at how good they are. Thank you for the delicious recipe!

Excellent! I tried these yesterday! I bought 2- 80 ounce jars of pickles. I tried your recipe as is. They are very good! My Grandson has developed a "Rub" that is kind of a all purpose rub. We decided to try this recipe with 8 oz. creamed cheese, 2 Tablespoons chopped onions, 2 Tablespoons rub, 1 teaspoon Tobasco, and 4 Tablespoons minced garlic! Awesome!! We also used your recipe but added a small can of chopped tuna. These are also very good!Now you have me taking a serious look at your other recipes! Thanks Uncle Bill!!

These are spectacular, I did add some finely chopped pastrami and took them to a party. Man were they a hit!

I made a double batch of these for a surprise party on Saturday. They turned out well, however, my daughter got a little carried away with the garlic and they really had a "bite"!! Next time I make a double batch I will mix these myself!

I made this for Christmas since my daughter loves dill pickles. I used a chopstick to poke out the centers of the pickles. It was fun! If you know someone who likes dill pickles- they will love these.

I made these for my Christmas party - very delicious with smoked salmon cream cheese. And the pickle corer woked like a charm! Thanks Uncle Bill. Helen

I used light cream cheese with onion and chives already in there, I did add a few drops of Tabasco sauce. Everyone liked it. I used a long thin knife to remove the inside of the pickles, that was the hardest part of the recipe. I put the cheese mixture into a sandwich size ziplock bag, then cut a small hole at the corner and piped the cheese into the pickle, it was easy and simple to clean. I had trouble getting the cheese to stick to the inside of the pickles maybe I needed to dry the pickles longer. Thank you for an easy and yummy recipe.

If you love dill pickles, you'll love this dish! I made it up with Mexican carrots as well, and they were so pretty on the tray. I took a shortcut and squeezed the dip on with a pastry bag rather than coring the pickles. I also added a tiny pinch of salt and italian seasoning to the cream cheese mixture. This will be a keeper, thanks Uncle Bill!

Yum what a great quick snack and so many possibilities on variations of the stuffing. The hot sauce and cream cheese work really well together with the pickle. I didn't have a dill corer but a hobby store sold me a few short lengths of aluminium rod for a few dollars that worked really well and gave me a few different sizes because the local pickles seem to vary a lot in size.

The first time I made these, I followed the recipe and they were great!! Everytime since ...I've tried different flavorings for the cream cheese...and they are still fabulous! I've taken these to a potluck, at first everyone thought I was nuts...but once tasting..they wanted the recipe!

Great recipe!! A little difficult to core without the proper tools, but the flavor was excellent. Without the pickle, this makes a great spread for crackers (tried it and loved it!!). I thought I might try topping a cracker with a thick slice of pickle and piped cream cheese mixture on top of that....less hassle with the same flavor result. Thanks a bunch!!!
