Fit a piping bag or a ziplock bag with a star tip and fill it with the cream cheese mixture.

Slice cucumbers into 18 even slices and arrange them on a serving platter.
-
Pipe the cream cheese mixture onto each cucumber slice in decorative swirls or rosettes.

Sprinkle additional everything bagel seasoning on top of each bite.

Notes
Use flavored cream cheese like herb & garlic for more depth.
Add fresh herbs such as chives or dill to the cream cheese mix.
Substitute vegan cream cheese for a dairy-free option.
Top with smoked salmon, olives, or microgreens for a gourmet touch.
Store covered in the fridge and consume within 24 hours for best freshness.
