My daughter and I came up with this sandwich for our weekly afternoon tea. The sandwiches are spicy, sweet, and have a nice crunch to them. Enjoy! Ingredients:
1 carrot, peeled and grated |
4 tablespoons soft cream cheese |
1 teaspoon brown sugar |
1/8 teaspoon five-spice powder |
4 slices dark rye bread |
Directions:
1. Combine the grated carrot, cream cheese spread, brown sugar, and five-spice powder in a bowl. Mix well.
2. Chill the mixture for 1/2 hour to allow the flavors to blend.
3. Cut the crusts off of the pumpernickel slices and roll the bread to flatten it.
4. Spread the mixture onto two of the slices of bread and top with the other two slices.
5. Cut these sandwiches diagonally into two triangles each.
