Ingredients
• 1 box (4 sleeves) Ritz crackers
• 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives (or green onions)
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, chopped chives (or green onions), lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Use a hand mixer or a sturdy spoon to mix the ingredients until they are well combined and the filling is smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Gently spread a thin layer of the cream cheese filling onto one side of a Ritz cracker. Top with another Ritz cracker to create a small sandwich. Repeat this process with the remaining crackers and filling, making sure to evenly distribute the filling.
- Chill and Serve: Place the assembled Ritz Cracker Party Sandwiches on a baking sheet or platter and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, to allow the filling to set. Once chilled, arrange the sandwiches on a serving tray and enjoy!
