RANCH DRESSING CHEESE BALL



Ranch Dressing Cheese Ball image

This is my sister's go-to appetizer for church socials, Super Bowl Sundays, and Christmas munchies. Several years ago, she put too much of the ranch dressing mix into the recipe, and it was hard to serve. My dad renamed it the "cheese wad." We think Ranch Dressing Cheese Ball sounds more appetizing, but at our house, it will forever be known as Cheese Wad!

Yield makes 2 cheese balls; serves 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 4-ounce package Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup buttermilk, well shaken
16 ounces Cheddar cheese, grated, room temperature
12 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup pecans, finely chopped

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the dressing mix, mayonnaise, buttermilk, Cheddar, and cream cheese until thoroughly blended. Divide the mixture into two equal portions in two separate bowls. Cover the bowls and place them in the freezer for 30 minutes. When each portion is firm, use your hands to shape it into a ball. Place the nuts in a shallow bowl or on a piece of waxed paper. Roll each ball in the nuts to coat it on all sides. Serve with crackers or bagel chips.
  • Let this sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving for easier spreading.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the cheeseball will taste. This is especially true for the buttermilk, ranch dressing, and cheese.
  • Chill the cheeseball before serving: This will help it to firm up and make it easier to slice and serve.
  • Garnish the cheeseball with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include chopped chives, red pepper flakes, or crumbled bacon.
  • Serve the cheeseball with crackers, vegetables, or bread: This will help to balance out the richness of the cheeseball.
  • Make the cheeseball ahead of time: The cheeseball can be made up to 2 days in advance. Simply store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve.

Conclusion:

Buttermilk ranch cheeseball is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture and tangy flavor, this cheeseball is sure to be a hit with your guests. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give this buttermilk ranch cheeseball a try. You won't be disappointed!
