CREAM CHEESE WRAPPED DILL PICKLES

Cream Cheese Wrapped Dill Pickles image

Totally addictive appetizer! Dill pickle rounds are the center of attention when wrapped in a blanket of cream cheese spread deli meat. An interesting appetizer I wanted to try after chef EnJenn3 described it in Topic of the Month thread. I searched and was surprised that the recipe wasn't posted here. I found different versions of it on Allrecipes and Cooks.com. I took both versions and spliced them together, based on my previous experience making similar appys, and here you have it. Herb-flavored spreadable cream cheese could also be used instead of regular. I got about 5-6 pickle rounds out of each pickle, but it will depend on how big they are to begin with.

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

8 kosher dill pickles, whole
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 ounces sour cream (or you can use all cream cheese)
3 ounces meat (deli-sliced roast beef or ham, not ultra thinly sliced)
1 -2 tablespoon horseradish cream (optional, but really good with roast beef)

Steps:

Using paper towels, gently pat the pickles and the meat slices dry.
Combine the cream cheese, sour cream & horseradish (if using), together in a small bowl.
On a cutting board, or clean surface, lay out 1 slice of deli meat (if the meat is sliced thin enough to have holes, use two slices, one on top of the other) and gently spread with cheese mixture.
Lay one pickle along the edge of the meat and roll up tightly.
Repeat with remaining meat, cheese & pickles, then cover and refrigerate overnight.
Before serving, slice pickles into 1/2-3/4 inch rounds with a sharp knife.

Tips:

Choose high-quality cream cheese. Full-fat cream cheese will give you the best flavor and texture.
Use fresh dill. Fresh dill has a more vibrant flavor than dried dill.
Don't over-mix the cream cheese. Over-mixing will make the cream cheese tough.
Use a sharp knife to cut the dill. This will help prevent the dill from tearing.
Wrap the cream cheese tightly in the dill. This will help keep the cream cheese from falling apart.
Chill the cream cheese before serving. This will help the cream cheese firm up and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Dill-wrapped cream cheese is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It's made with just a few simple ingredients and can be prepared in just minutes. Whether you're serving it at a party or enjoying it as a snack, dill-wrapped cream cheese is sure to be a hit.
