Yields 20

1. 5 slices white sandwich bread, such as Pepperidge Farm Farmhouse White Bread
2. 20 very thin slices English cucumber
3. ½ cup salted butter, softened
4. 2 teaspoons finely minced fresh dill
5. Garnish: fresh dill sprigs

1. Using a 1¾-inch square cutter, cut 4 squares from each bread slice. Set aside. Discard crusts.
2. Place cucumber on paper towels to absorb liquid. Set aside.
3. In a small bowl, combine butter and dill, stirring well. Transfer butter to a piping bag fitted with a very small open-star tip (Wilton #15).
4. Pipe a decorative border around top edges of each square. Place a cucumber slice on top of each square. Pipe a star shape in the center of each cucumber.
5. Garnish each with a fresh dill sprig, if desired.
