Tips:
- For a smoother cheese ball, cream together the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy before adding the other ingredients.
- If you don't have crushed pineapple, you can use 1 (8-ounce) can of pineapple tidbits, drained and finely chopped.
- Be sure to use finely shredded cheddar cheese for the best texture.
- Add in some chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, for a crunchy twist.
- If you want a sweeter cheese ball, add in some honey or maple syrup to taste.
- For a more savory cheese ball, add in some garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper.
- Serve the cheese ball with crackers, breadsticks, or fruit slices for dipping.
