Strawberry Cheese Ring

"We always had this at my grandparents on Christmas Eve. A coworker of mine, brought this into work a couple of years ago, and I got this recipe from her. It tastes just like I remember. It's just one of those recipes for me, that brings back memories of childhood. Plus I think it tastes pretty darn good. Cook time includes refrigeration time."

  1. I made this cheese ring for a ladies brunch. It looked lovely and very festive. I served it on a crystal round platter and wish I could post a picture. The only change I made was to use chopped green onion instead of regular onion. I shaped the ring in a ring mold and used the strawberry preserves like a glaze and drizzled on top. bratty_1, thanks for posting this recipe.
     
  2. I had a tupperware party tonight and served this with ritz crackers. It is soooooo good! Everyone loved it. I must have given the recipe to at least 20 people. Thanks for posting this recipe.
     
  3. I made this for a strawberry themed luncheon I catered and everyone loved it and wanted the recipe! In order to make it into a ring, I lined a bundt cake pan with saran wrap and pressed the cream cheese mixture into it evenly and put it in the refrigerator for a few hours. I inverted it on a platter and it turned out perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again. Thank you for posting!
     
  4. I love this recipe and have made it for years. I make mine a little bit differently, though. I leave off the jam and sometimes i make mine into a cheese ball instead of a cheese ring. I also only use half of the pecans in the recipe and then i use the other half on the outside. It tastes the same. It's a favorite with my family and our guests. A+
     
  5. I made this for our Zaar appetizer cookathon. Cut the recipe by half and made a 'mini ring' The sweetness of the preserves is a lovely contrast to the cheese and onion mix, and looks pretty good too! Thanks for a keeper recipe!
