Here is an easy-peasy bite that you can serve your guests while they are waiting for the main event to occur. Just don't let them eat too many.
I made my own Batard and then sliced it into rounds; however, to make this even easier, you could purchase one from you local grocer. The ingredients are simple, but they compliment each other to create layers of wonderful flavor.
So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

- 8Chef’s Tip: If you having trouble cutting the batard without crushing it, place it in the freezer for about 20 minutes. This will firm it up, and make slicing easier.
- 9Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 350f (175c).
- 10Brush both sides of the batard rounds with melted butter.
- 11Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- 12Add to the oven and bake for 8 - 12 minutes, turning them over halfway through.
- 13Chef’s Note: They should be toasted to a golden color, but not overly browned.
- 14Remove from oven and allow them to cool.
- 15Take a slice of the beef, and lay on a flat, dry surface, and thinly coat the beef with half of the softened cream cheese.
- 16Lightly season with salt and pepper.
- 17Cover with another piece of beef and press together.
