Cucumber Canape

This recipe for Cucumber Canape with chive cream cheese and shrimp looks fancier than it is.  I promise they’re easy to make but look fancy.  Those are my favorite kinds of recipes.

Simply cream together the cream cheese, milk, onion powder, and chives and place it all in a Ziplock bag for piping into the cucumber “cups”.  As far as the cups, the only thing to watch is not to dig the spoon in too deep when scooping out the center.  You don’t want to go through the bottom of the cucumber and lose the whole “cup” effect.

These are also open for your own creative interpretation.  Add whatever you’d like to the tops.  Slivers of bell pepper, nuts, herbs, get creative.
