This recipe is a family favorite! My mom can’t show up to any gathering without her Cream Cheese Pickle Wraps. They are so easy to make and everyone loves them. Pickle Wraps are a great appetizer for Super Bowl or before any meal.
Ingredients You Will Need
- Thinly Sliced Ham
- Cream Cheese
- Dill Pickles
Equipment You May Need
Helpful Tips
- Set out the cream cheese about an hour before using. It makes it much easier to spread, and it makes it less likely that the ham will tear while spreading.
- Before cutting, place the pickle wraps in the refrigerator for at least an hour. This allows the cream cheese to harden back up a little and makes it less likely that the pickles will slide out while cutting.
Variations and Substitutes
- Pickled asparagus can be used in place of dill pickles.
- Green onions can be used in place of dill pickles.
- Any other thinly sliced lunchmeat can be used in place of ham.
