Salami Cream Cheese Pickles
Salami Cream Cheese Pickles are bite-sized rolls that combine the tangy crunch of pickles with rich cream cheese and savory salami, creating a flavor explosion that's perfect for gatherings.
Ingredients
- 6-8 large dill pickles, firm and crunchy
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 12-16 slices of salami, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Drain pickles thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped dill, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
- Slice each pickle lengthwise into quarters.
- Lay a slice of salami flat, spread about a tablespoon of cream cheese mixture on it, place a pickle spear at one end, and roll tightly.
- Repeat until all rolls are assembled, then slice each roll in half for bite-sized pieces.
Notes
Use room temperature cream cheese for easy spreading. Choose firm pickles for best results. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving for optimal flavor.
