Cucumber Cream Cheese Spread with Everything Bagel Chips

This cucumber cream cheese spread is inspired by the Plaza's Afternoon Tea Sandwiches. It's herbaceous, creamy, and out of control delicious. I like to serve it with these easy everything bagel chips but it's also delicious between fluffy white bread.

Equipment

Ingredients
  

For the Cucumber Cream Cheese Spread

  • 1 8 oz package Cream Cheese room temperature
  • 2 small Cucumbers grated (about 1 cup)
  • 2 stalks Scallions thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoon Fresh Cilantro finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoon Fresh Mint finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoon Grainy Mustard
  • ½ Lemon juiced
  • 1 pinch Flaky Salt

For the Everything Bagel Chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
  • Meanwhile, add cream cheese, grated cucumber, chopped scallion, cilantro, mint, grainy mustard, lemon juice and a huge pinch of kosher salt together in a large bowl.
  • Use an electric mixer to whip the ingredients together until combined. Let this cream cheese mixture rest for at least 20 minutes for the flavors to come together.
  • For the Bagel chips, thinly slice your bagels and add them to a large bowl.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and everything bagel seeds and toss to coat.
  • Place each piece evenly spaced apart on a baking sheet and add more oil and everything bagel seeds if necessary - you want them coated!
  • Bake for 10-20 minutes (some bagels crisp up faster than others) or until they’re light golden brown and crunchy.
  • Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
