Elevate your next bridal shower, tea party, or engagement celebration with these adorable and delicious Engagement Ring Finger Sandwiches! Perfectly crafted to resemble sparkling engagement rings, these bite-sized treats are as charming as they are tasty. Made with alternating white and whole wheat bread rings, each sandwich is filled with a delectable mix of cream cheese, smoked salmon, cucumber, or sweet and savory turkey with apricot jam. Topped with vibrant grape tomato "gems" and optional herb garnishes, theyβre almost too pretty to eat. Ready in just 25 minutes, these elegant finger sandwiches are a show-stopping addition to any celebration, combining style and flavor in every bite.
Using a round cookie cutter (about 2.5 inches in diameter), cut out circles from each slice of white and whole wheat bread. Then, use a smaller round cutter (about 1 inch in diameter) to cut a smaller circle near the top edge of each larger circle to create a 'ring' shape.
Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on one side of the white bread rings.
For the smoked salmon filling: Top six of the cream cheese-spread white bread rings with a small piece of smoked salmon and a slice of cucumber. Cover with a whole wheat bread ring to form a sandwich.
For the turkey and apricot jam filling: Spread apricot jam on six whole wheat bread rings. Layer a piece of deli turkey and a small dab of cream cheese on top. Cover with a white bread ring to form a sandwich.
Gently press the sandwiches together. Trim any excess filling for a clean look, if necessary.
For the decoration: Place half a grape or cherry tomato on the smaller circular cutout of each sandwich to mimic the 'gem' of the engagement ring. Optionally, secure the tomato with a small dab of cream cheese underneath and garnish with a tiny sprig of dill or parsley.
Arrange the finger sandwiches on a serving platter and serve immediately, or cover with damp paper towels and plastic wrap to keep fresh until ready to serve.
