I'm not sure where I got this recipe, but I've refined it over several years and now have a cheese ball that friends and relatives beg me to make for parties and gatherings. The "award-winning" part of the title is from my works annual Christmas party where all of the dishes brought to the party were voted on. This recipe has won two times, giving me an extra day of vacation each time. Note: This recipe is best when made 12 to 24 hours before serving.

Steps:
- Open cream cheese and cheddar cheese placing them into large mixing bowl. On cutting board, finely chop green onions and place them in mixing bowl with cheeses. Do the same with the sliced beef. Beef and green onions may be finely chopped with a small food processor. Using a garlic press, mince garlic and place into mixing bowl.
- Wait until cheeses have become soft; about 1 hour. Add lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce. Using your hands (this will be messy), thoroughly mix all ingredients in the bowl. When all ingredients are mixed well, place cheese ball on piece of foil. Roughly shape into ball with hands. Wash cheese ball stuff off of hands with warm water. With wet hands, smooth cheese ball into desired shape.
- Place cheese ball into sealed plastic container and refrigerate overnight. (Or just refrigerate without placing into a sealed container and everything in your refrigerator will smell like garlic for about a week).
- Take out of 'fridge about an hour before serving. Serve with your favorite crackers.

AWARD WINNING CHEESE BALL
Steps:
- Mix the cream cheese, Old English Spread, Bacon Spread, and vinegar in a bowl with a blender. Using a spoon will also work, but using your blender will cut the time in half, and the mixture will be nice and creamy. When everything is mixed, start to add the garlic and onion salt to taste. Start off small, and work your way up towards a flavor that you enjoy.
- When you are finished, put the cheese mixture in a decorative smaller bowl, and coat the top with the parsley flakes.
- Put in the refrigerator for at least a half hour to chill before serving. I almost always make this cheese ball the night before you will eat it. This allows all of the flavors in the cheese ball to mix, and bring out all of the flavor. Enjoy! This tastes great!

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh garlic and herbs, sharp cheddar cheese, and creamy cream cheese are all essential.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cheese ball tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before shaping it. This will help the cheese ball hold its shape.
- If you're using a food processor to make the dough, be sure to pulse it until the ingredients are just combined. Overprocessing will make the dough too smooth.
- Shape the dough into a ball and then roll it in chopped nuts, herbs, or spices. This will give the cheese ball a festive look and add extra flavor.
- Serve the cheese ball with crackers, bread, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
With its creamy texture, sharp cheddar flavor, and festive appearance, this award-winning garlic cheese ball is sure to be a hit at your next party. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a delicious and impressive appetizer, give this recipe a try.
