Yield 40 to 45 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
10 1/2 ounces montrachet or other mild goat cheese, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
5 to 6 tablespoons milk, half-and-half or heavy cream
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 loaves 7-grain bread, thinly sliced
1 hothouse cucumber, not peeled

Steps:

For the spread, place the cream cheese, goat cheese, garlic, thyme, parsley, 5 tablespoons milk, salt and pepper in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until well mixed. Add an additional tablespoon of milk if the spread is very thick. To make the sandwiches, spread each slice of bread with the goat cheese spread. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and arrange on half of the bread slices. Top with the remaining bread. Press slightly, trim off the crusts and cut the sandwiches into halves, thirds or triangles. Make these sandwiches in the morning, then cover with damp paper towels and plastic wrap and refrigerate. Cut just before serving.
