Cheese Ball Recipe:
I love a good cheese ball at parties, and who doesn’t? Packed with bacon bits, nuts, shredded cheese and seasonings, this is the ULTIMATE appetizer recipe.
Not only is the cheese ball loaded with so much flavor, but it also takes just minutes to prepare and is so stunning when served.
How to Make a Cheese Ball:
Making a cheese ball is SO EASY! Once you make a homemade cheese ball, you’ll never purchase store-bought again. You just can’t beat a homemade cheeseball!
- In a mixing bowl, combine all of the cheese ingredients until well incorporated: cream cheese and sour cream, bacon bits, shredded cheese, green onion, walnuts, poppy seeds, and seasonings.
- Finely chop the cheese, walnuts, green onion for the coating (or you can leave it chunky if that’s your preference).
- Shape cheese ball and coat generously with the topping mixture and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Cooks TIP: For easier mixing, first, beat the cream cheese and sour cream with a mixer, then stir in remaining ingredients with a spatula or wooden spoon until well incorporated.
