Notes
Smoked Salmon with Cream Cheese is the perfect snack for a party. Keep them refrigerated until it's time to serve. (You can make these hours or even a whole day before serving.)
Only use a small amount of cream cheese so your smoked salmon bites look neat and the filling doesn't come out the sides.
