Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 4 oz Gorgonzola cheese
- 1 cup Sharp white cheddar cheese, grated
- 2 tbsp Dry white wine
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 cup Chopped walnuts
- 2 tbsp Fresh chives, finely chopped
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 package Crackers or fresh vegetables for serving
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, gorgonzola cheese, and grated sharp white cheddar cheese. Use a hand mixer or a sturdy spoon to blend the mixture until smooth and well combined.
Add the dry white wine, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the cheese mixture. Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of the chopped parsley and 1 tablespoon of the chopped chives, reserving the rest for coating the cheese ball later.
Shape the cheese mixture into a ball using clean hands or a spatula. Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
While the cheese ball chills, combine the chopped walnuts, remaining parsley, and remaining chives in a shallow dish or bowl to create the coating mixture.
Once the cheese ball is firm, remove it from the refrigerator and unwrap it. Roll the cheese ball in the coating mixture, pressing gently to adhere the walnut and herb mixture evenly to the surface.
Transfer the coated cheese ball to a serving plate. Serve immediately with crackers or fresh vegetables of your choice, or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
