Swiss Sandwiches
Directions
Put half a pound of ordinary schmier-kase into a bowl, rub it perfectly smooth; add, a teaspoonful at a time, four tablespoonfuls of thick cream, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter, half a teaspoonful of salt, and a saltspoonful of pepper. Butter the slices of bread on the loaf; cut each off about a half inch in thickness, trim off the crusts and spread with the cheese mixture; put on top a layer of pumpernickel or rye bread; on top of that another thin layer of cheese, and on top of that another layer of white bread and butter; press these lightly together. If the crusts have been trimmed off, cut the slices into three or four finger shaped sandwiches. They should be the length of the slice and about one inch wide. These are exceedingly nice garnished with cress. In arranging them for serving, put a layer of sandwiches and a layer of cress all through the basket or dish.
