Cucumber Cream Cheese Finger Sandwiches

These adorable mini sandwiches are a staple at afternoon tea. Though they can be made with several different fillings, they must be petite and slender to ensure they can be polished off in a few bites. This recipe features thinly sliced cucumber sandwiched between blankets of tangy cream cheese. Stack several finger sandwiches together, serve with a cup of hot brown water, and you’ve got a mini afternoon tea for two.
