- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill minced

- Wash and dry the cucumber. Do not peel. Slice it very thinly using a Mandoline slicer or sharp knife.
- Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture onto one side of each piece of bread.
- Place a layer of sliced cucumbers onto a piece of bread over the cream cheese layer. Cucumbers should be placed closely and slightly overlapping.
- Place the second slice of prepared bread over the cucumber layer making a sandwich.
- Using a serrated knife, carefully slice the crusts off the bread, then cut the sandwich into two or four pieces or rounds. Repeat until all the sandwiches have been assembled. Serve within 1-2 hours of assembly.
