Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Dried parsley
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans
- 2 tbsp Fresh chives, chopped
- n/a Crackers or vegetables, for serving
Instructions
Allow the cream cheese to come to room temperature to make it easier to mix.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
On a clean surface, lay out a large piece of plastic wrap. Transfer the cheese mixture onto the plastic wrap and shape it into a ball.
Wrap the cheese ball tightly in the plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
Once the cheese ball is firm, combine the chopped pecans and fresh chives on a plate or shallow dish.
Unwrap the cheese ball and roll it in the pecan and chive mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks evenly around the surface.
Transfer the finished cheese ball to a serving plate and surround it with your choice of crackers or vegetables.
Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
