Cucumber Tea Sandwiches image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 18 tea sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 stick (4 ounces) salted Irish butter, such as Kerrygold, at room temperature
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1 tablespoon finely minced shallot
1 teaspoon lemon zest plus juice of 1/2 lemon
12 slices brioche bread (1/2-inch slices), crusts removed
