In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and curry powder. Mix well until smooth and evenly combined.
Add the finely chopped green onion to the cream cheese mixture and stir until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper, adjusting to taste.
Lay out the sandwich bread slices on a clean work surface. Spread a thin layer of softened butter on one side of each slice to prevent the filling from making the bread soggy.
On half of the slices, spread an even layer of the curried cream cheese mixture. Aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
Spread 1-2 teaspoons of chutney on top of the cream cheese layer, being careful not to add too much to prevent overflow.
If desired, sprinkle fresh cilantro over the chutney for a burst of freshness.
Top each prepared slice with another piece of bread, buttered side facing inwards, to form a sandwich.
Using a sharp knife, carefully trim off the crusts from each sandwich for a neat, uniform appearance.
Cut each sandwich into four small squares or triangles, creating bite-sized pieces.
Arrange the sandwiches neatly on a serving platter and cover with a slightly damp paper towel until ready to serve to keep them fresh.
