Ingredients

  • 24 pumpernickel cocktail bread slices
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 6 slices (about 8 ounces) dill Havarti cheese from deli
  • 24 medium or large cooked shrimp, thawed if frozen and tails removed
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill weed

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 400°. Place bread slices in jelly roll pan, 15 1/2x10 1/2x1 inch. Bake 4 to 6 minutes or until crisp.
  • 2
    Mix mustard and honey; spread over bread slices. Cut cheese into 2-inch squares. Top each bread slice with cheese, shrimp and bell pepper. Sprinkle with dill weed.
  • 3
    Bake 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

  • If you can't find the dill-flavored Havarti, you can use regular Havarti or you might try Gouda for a flavor change.
  • Ask the deli to layer paper between slices of cheese to prevent the slices from sticking together.
  • Feathery dill was thought by the first-century Romans to be a good luck symbol. Its distinctive flavor and aroma adds interest to this very easy appetizer. Danish Havarti is a wonderful mild, nutty cheese that is enhanced when combined with the pungent flavor of the dill weed.
