BACON AND DILL PICKLE CHEESE BALL
Set this cheese ball out at a party and it will disappear like magic before your eyes. I like to serve it with plain potato chips or real dill pickle-flavored potato chips instead of the artificially flavored ones. Crackers and raw veggies work too.

DILL PICKLE CHEESE BALL
I used to make what I considered a good cheese ball, and then my friend let me taste hers... and hers was a great cheese ball! Serve with assorted crackers. One year, I made several mini cheese balls and gave them as gifts with a box of nice crackers to my kid's teachers and bus drivers... it was a success! Enjoy!

MOM'S DILL PICKLE CHEESE BALL
My mom always made this when she needed to bring an appetizer to a party. It's a super easy recipe. The thing that makes it tastier than other cheeseballs are the pickles.
