Cucumber Sandwiches

• 1 English cucumber, rinsed, peeled, and thinly sliced
• ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 loaf soft wheat or white bread, crusts removed

Butter two slices of the bread. Place sliced cucumber on one of the bread slices, overlapping the cucumber slightly. Top with the other slice of bread and cut the sandwich in half to form two triangles. Cut the sandwich in half the other direction to form a total of four triangles. Proceed with the remaining bread and cucumber slices.

Place the sandwiches on a tray, cover them with damp paper towel so they don’t dry out, and cover the tray with plastic wrap. Chill several hours or until ready to serve.
