Recipe: TOH Egg Salad (using cream cheese, mayonnaise, and butter)

Hi Susan, this is the only TOH recipe I could find that has butter, as an ingredient, for Egg Salad

DELUXE EGG SALAD SANDWICHES

1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese with chives, softened
2 tablespoons butter, softened
2 tablespoons finely chopped celery
1 tablespoon mayonnaise OR salad dressing
1 teaspoon grated onion
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon horseradish
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Dash garlic powder

6 hard-cooked eggs, peeled, chopped fine
1 to 2 tablespoons mayonnaise OR salad dressing
8 slices rye bread

In medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and butter; stir until smooth.

Stir in celery, mayonnaise, onion, sugar, horseradish, lemon juice, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Fold in eggs. Cover; chill at least 1 hour.

Let stand at room temperature about 15 minutes before making sandwiches.

If desired, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons additional mayonnaise.

For each sandwich, spread about 1/2 cup egg mixture on 1 slice of rye bread. Top with another bread slice. Garnish with alfalfa sprouts, if desired.

Yield: 4 sandwiches
