Pickle Appetizer / Munchie image

These sound strange, but I've never had anyone try them who didn't say they were great. I host football parties every Sunday and always like to have a tray of finger foods that are bite size, and this is one I use often because its so easy and good.

Time 10m

Yield 16 munchies, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 whole pickles (I prefer Claussen)
4 ounces cream cheese (give or take, I don't measure, softened works best)
4 slices deli ham (I prefer Domestic Ham, have it sliced medium-thick)
garlic powder for sprinkling if you prefer savory
sugar or peanut butter, to mix into the creme cheese if you prefer sweet

Steps:

  • Dry off pickles with paper towel.
  • Using a knife, spread the creme cheese all around the pickles.
  • Lie pickles at long end of ham and roll up just to get one layer around pickle.
  • Slice pickles about 1 inch thick.
  • You can insert toothpicks for easy serving.
  • Serve at room temperature -- they are better once the creme cheese is soft and melds into the pickle.
