Directions

  1. Prepare Topping. Combine cream cheese, sour cream, seasoning, and dill weed until smooth. Transfer mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a tip. For best results, refrigerate one day before serving to allow flavors to develop.
  2. Prepare Cucumbers. Cut ends off cucumbers. Create stripes by making one continuous peel the length of the cucumber. Repeat 2 or 3 times, leaving an equal distance between the next peel. Slice into wheels, about ¾-inch thick. Pipe roughly 1 Tablespoon of topping onto the cut side of each cucumber wheel. Arrange on a serving plate; garnish as desired.
