Appetizers and SnacksROAST BEEF SPIRALS
2 pkg (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground ginger
6 slices (cooked) roast beef, cut 1/4-inch thick
9 quartered canned spiced crab apples, well drained
cellophane-tipped toothpicks
Prepare the filling by combining the cream cheese, garlic and ginger. Whip in a blender.
Spread the filling generously and evenly on the roast beef slices and roll them up lengthwise. Wrap the rolls in foil and freeze them for half an hour.
Remove rolls from the freezer and cut into 1-inch-wide slices, which will have a lovely spiral design. Garnish each slice with a quartered crab apple attached with a cellophane-tipped toothpick and serve.
DO-AHEAD NOTE:
Prepare the rolls the day before and freeze. Two hours before serving, remove from the freezer. Cut, garnish and allow to stand at room temperature until serving time.
Makes about 36
