Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz Cream cheese
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley
- 1 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1 sheet Plastic wrap
- 1 package Crackers or vegetable sticks (for serving)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until well blended using a spatula or hand mixer.
Add garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped parsley to the cheese mixture. Mix thoroughly to incorporate all the flavors.
Place the chopped nuts on a large plate or shallow dish and spread them out evenly.
Scoop the cheese mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap. Using the wrap, shape the mixture into a ball. Twist the ends of the plastic wrap to secure the ball shape.
Refrigerate the cheese ball for at least 2 hours to allow it to firm up and let the flavors meld together.
After chilling, unwrap the cheese ball and gently roll it over the chopped nuts, pressing lightly so the nuts adhere to the surface evenly.
Place the finished cheese ball on a serving plate with crackers or vegetable sticks arranged around it.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
