Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by rinsing the fresh cucumbers under cool water. Use a potato peeler to create alternating strips, leaving some skin on. Slice into 18 equal, round pieces about half an inch thick.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the whipped cream cheese with 2 tablespoons of Everything Bagel Seasoning. Mix thoroughly until well blended for a smooth texture.
  3. Fit a piping bag or ziplock bag with a star tip. Fill the bag with the cream cheese mixture, about two-thirds full.
  4. Pipe a generous swirl of the cream cheese mixture on top of each cucumber slice, starting from the center and working outward.
  5. Sprinkle each bite with additional Everything Bagel Seasoning for extra flavor and visual appeal. Arrange on the serving platter neatly.
  6. Serve immediately for optimal crunch, or refrigerate covered until ready to enjoy. They can be stored for up to two days in the fridge.
