Perfect for brunch, lunch or a garden tea party, these tiny bites are big on flavor. Ingredients:
1 package (8 ounces) 1/3 less fat cream cheese (neufchâtel), at room temperature |
1/3 cup nestlÉ nesquik strawberry flavor powder |
1/4 teaspoon grated orange peel (optional) |
3- to 4-inch round biscuit cutter or other fun cookie cutters |
16 thin slices whole-wheat or white bread |
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries |
Directions:
1. COMBINE cream cheese and Nesquik in bowl; stir until Nesquik is dissolved. Stir in orange peel. Using biscuit cutter, cut each piece of bread into circles; discard excess.
2. SPREAD about 2 tablespoons cream cheese mixture over half of the bread circles. Place about 4 slices strawberries on top of cream cheese mixture; top with remaining bread circles.
3. VARIATION: Use 1/2 cup peeled, thinly sliced cucumber in place of strawberries. Fresh mint leaves are also a great addition to both strawberry and cucumber sandwiches.
