Fancy Layered Sandwich

Created by lovinretirement on August 22, 2024

2 cups of pimento cheese spread
2 sticks of unsalted butter, softened (1 cup)
Cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 fresh green pepper, sliced in thin slices
Cucumber slices, notched out with the part of a potato peeler that cuts out the potato eyes

Step 1: Put unsliced bread in the freezer for about 1 hour (in a plastic bag). This will make it easier to slice and spread the fillings.
Step 2: Allow butter and cream cheese to set out for about 1 hour or more to get soft enough to spread.
Step 3: Remove bread from freezer and cut the crusts off. Save crusts for another time to make bread crumbs for another recipe. Cut the bread lengthwise to make 5 layers.
Step 4: Spread softened butter on both sides except the top of the top layer and the bottom of the bottom layer, so the fillings don't make the bread soggy.
Step 5: Begin assembling the sandwich by spreading a nice thick amount of each filling on each layer of bread, so that you have 4 layers of filling. Arrange the fillings any way you want. Then top with the top layer of bread.
Step 6: Then spread the softened cream cheese all over the bread loaf and smooth it out. Top with fresh veggies to make a pretty arrangement.
Step 7: Cover with a slightly dampened clean dish towel and refrigerate for 2 hours so it firms up.
Step 8: Slice and serve.
