I found it odd that no one had reviewed this awesome recipe yet. I made it for my MIL's 60th birthday and they disappeared before I could get one! I actually had 2 people ask for the recipe. The only thing I did differently was use pumpernickel rye instead of French bread and I added a little bit of dill. I also mixed the spread the night before and let it sit, covered, in the fridge to blend the flavors. I had one (for quality control purposes) and it was great. They're simple and tasty and I will definitely make them again for other parties! Thanks for posting!
