The Best Cheeseball
- Ready In:
- 15mins
- Ingredients:
- 9
- Yields:
-
4 cheeseballs
- Serves:
- 32
ingredients
- 907.18 g cream cheese, softened
- 946.36 ml sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 7.39 ml garlic powder
- 4.92 ml dried oregano
- 9.85 ml dried parsley
- 1.23 ml black pepper
- 14.79 ml Worcestershire sauce
- 14.79 ml hot pepper sauce
- 236.59 ml pecans, finely chopped for rolling
directions
- Place finely chopped pecans in a shallow dish and set aside.
- In a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment), mix the cream cheese until smooth.
- Add the cheddar cheese and mix until just combined.
- Lightly sprinkle all the seasonings and sauces over the cheese mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.
- With lightly greased hands, portion the cheese mixture into 4 pieces and roll each section into a round ball.
- Coat in pecans.
- The easiest way to do this is to hold the cheeseball in one and and scoop up the pecans and press them onto the cheeseball with the other, turning the cheeseball as you go and letting the excess pecans fall back into the dish (this helps the pecans go farther).
- Cover each cheeseball in saran wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

I love to try new recipes, and this is a wonderful site to find new additions. I rarely make the same thing twice because it's so much fun to try something different. My life long dream is to travel the world and eat my way around it.
