This was a hit at a dinner party. I omited the salmon from the cheese spread in case someone doesn't like salmon. Added a pinch of salt. Served over 1/2" thick English cucumber with the middle partially scooped out to hold the spread. So yummy. Tried some with 3 capers added on top of the cheese spread and under the smoked salmon. Dressed with tiny sprigs of dill on each piece. Thank you for this delicious appetizer.

I made these as part of a wine and cheese gathering with new friends. It was the first thing to go. Everyone loved them. A nice change from crackers. I will make this frequently.
