INGREDIENTS 1/2 pound chipped beef
2 packages cream cheese
Sufficient cream to smooth
Small sweet pickles
Horseradish, to tasteLay out 1/2 pound of chipped beef on a board with pieces overlapping a little, until the whole measures about 12-inches long and 5-inches wide.
Crush 2 packages cream cheese with a fork. Add sufficient cream to achieve a smooth paste. Season to taste with horseradish. Spread beef generously and smoothly with this mixture.
Trim both rounded ends of small sweet pickles and place them end to end lengthwise 1-inch inside left edge. Fold edge of beef over the pickles and roll tightly toward the far edge until roll is completed. Wrap in wax paper. Place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
When ready to serve, cut roll into 1/2-inch thick slices with a very sharp knife.
NOTE: It is not necessary to serve these slices on rounds of buttered toast, but if your guests have an aversion to licking their fingers at a formal party, they will appreciate having them served that way.
