Tomato, Cheese, Basil Tea Sandwiches - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 slices white bread (cut into 16 round shapes)
    2 tablespoons soft butter
    2 tablespoons mayonnaise
    8 small tomatoes, slices (to fit bread rounds)
    8 slices provolone cheese
    16 fresh basil leaves
    salt and pepper
    olive oil
Preparation
    Cut 16 small rounds of bread (to make 8 sandwiches) with a round cookie cutter--should be able to get two out of each piece of bread, otherwise, use a larger cutter and more bread.
    Spread one of the rounds with a little butter and then a little mayonnaise.
    Top each with a slice of tomato, cheese round, and a couple of basil leaves (each should fit the bread round).
    Lightly salt and pepper each one and put a couple of drops of olive oil on top.
    Place other bread round on top.
    Refrigerate till ready for the tea.
