These sandwiches were a disaster! The cucumber was soggy, the prosciutto was tough, and the cream cheese was flavorless.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the chives from the recipe. The sandwiches were still very good.

I couldn't find prosciutto at my local store. I used ham instead, and the sandwiches were still delicious.

The sandwiches were a bit dry. I would recommend adding a spread or sauce to them.

I found that the sandwiches were a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less prosciutto or cream cheese.

I'm not a big fan of cucumber sandwiches, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I'm glad I did! The prosciutto and cream cheese really balance out the cucumber, and the chives add a nice touch of flavor.

I've made these sandwiches several times now, and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're easy to make, and they look and taste amazing.

These tea sandwiches were a hit at my last party! The combination of cucumber, prosciutto, and cream cheese is classic for a reason - it's delicious. I also love the addition of the chives, which add a touch of freshness and color.
