Why use both cream cheese and mayonnaise?
Cream cheese provides a thick, flavorful base that helps create a barrier between the bread and cucumber. A little mayonnaise makes the spread smoother and easier to spread evenly.
You can leave out the mayonnaise and use cream cheese alone if you prefer a firmer filling.
