My boyfriend's mother gave me the idea for this classy appetizer that I serve for Sunday brunch and on special occasions like New Year's Eve. The textures and flavors of the dill, cream cheese and smoked salmon are scrumptious together. This dish is sure to be the toast of your buffet. —Tristin Crenshaw, Tucson, Arizona
