Ingredients
The following ingredients have 30 Servings
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 (8-ounce) package sharp or intense (white)cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
- ½ teaspoon granulated garlic (or garlic salt)
- dash of cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 (8-ounce) package medium cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 (8-ounce) package mild cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup toasted, chopped nuts for rolling
Instruction
- Combine the cream cheese and 8-ounces of the cheddar cheese in the bowl of a food processor, or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the Worcestershire Sauce, garlic, cayenne and mayonnaise. Process until well blended. Add another 8-ounces of the cheddar cheese and process again until mixed well. Remove the cheese mixture to a large bowl and add the remaining 8-ounces of shredded cheddar. Blend using a wooden spoon until combined. Divide the cheese ball in half and wrap each in a large sheet of plastic wrap. Twist the extra plastic wrap together at the top, forming the cheese into a ball. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
- When ready to serve, roll the cheese ball in chopped toasted pecans, sliced almonds, chopped parsley, or chili powder.
