I thought these would be really great because who doesn't like cream cheese, pickles, and white bread? They were okay. I can see how they would go over well at a Superbowl party or poker night, but for my taste, these were not great, just okay. Ease of preparation and few ingredients make this easy. I will try this again but maybe add red pepper flakes or jalapeno to kick it up a bit. Thanks for posting.

We usually roll the bread flat, then spread the cream cheese...it makes it easier to spread since the bread is flattened. They are always a big hit!!

These turned out perfect and were very easy to prepare and slice. They were gobbled up! Thanks

We\'ve been making these for years - good and easy - but we use sweet pickles-i\'ll have to try a batch w/the dill!

These are great little appetizers. They make up really quickly and make a very pretty presentation. I also used 1/4 cup mayo and they worked out just great.
