Ingredients
- 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (for coating)

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, finely chopped green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.
Using a spoon or hand mixer, mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined and smooth.
Scoop the cheese mixture onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Use the wrap to shape the cheese mixture into a ball.
Refrigerate the cheese ball for at least 1 hour to allow it to firm up and for the flavors to meld together.

Place the cheese ball on a serving platter. Serve with crackers or veggie sticks as an appetizer.
