Mom's Cheese Ball (The Best Ever) image

My mom gave me this recipe years ago. I don't think I've ever made this and not had someone ask for the recipe. I have had more "Can you make your cheese ball?" requests than I care to count. I don't really mind though because it is super easy for a party and mighty tastey.

Time 20m

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (seperated)
1 (8 ounce) package thin sliced beef lunch meat (I get the Carl Budding kind in the deli section I really don't know the exact package size. It's usu)
2 green onions (use both white and green)

THE BEST CHEESEBALL EVER



The Best Cheeseball Ever image

I was skeptical about the pineapple in this recipe, but you really can't tell that's what it is. It was delicious, and I'd make this again. I rolled mine in spicy almonds. Super simple, and delicious. Serving size is estimated.

Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 15m

Yield 10-15 2 cheese balls

Number Of Ingredients 5

16 ounces cream cheese, softened (at room temperature)
15 1/4 ounces crushed pineapple, drained
2 teaspoons Lawry's Seasoned Salt
3 green onions, chopped (or more depending on your taste)
chopped pecans or chopped walnuts, for coating

Steps:

  • Whip cream cheese until light and fluffy.
  • Add the pineapple, seasoned salt, and green onions until well mixed.
  • Form mixture into a ball. This was easier if I refrigerated the cheese ball for an hour before this step. I also found I preferred splitting this into 2 normal sized cheese balls instead of 1 huge cheese ball because it was easier to handle.
  • Roll the ball in the nuts.
  • Serve with crackers.

CLASSIC CHEESE BALL



Classic Cheese Ball image

Served alongside boozy martinis, this is the classic cheese ball of yesteryear, perfect for retro-chic parties.

Categories     Cheese     Appetizer     Hors D'Oeuvre     snack     Entertaining     Cocktail Party     Cream Cheese     Brie     Pecan

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 ounce Brie cheese, rind removed
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 to 1/2 tsp hot sauce, or to taste
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
6 ounces toasted pecans

Steps:

  • Combine the cream cheese, cheddar, Brie, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder in a bowl. With an electric mixer, beat on medium speed until incorporated. Add the parsley and continue to beat on low speed until just combined. Form the mixture into a ball and refrigerate until set.
  • While the cheese ball sets, coarsely chop the pecans and spread on a rimmed plate.
  • About 30 minutes before serving, remove the cheese ball from the fridge. Roll the ball in the pecans, pressing them firmly to the ball, until completely covered. Let soften at room temperature for 30 minutes. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the cheeseball will be. Use a good quality cream cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, and fresh herbs.
  • Don't overbeat the cream cheese. Overbeating the cream cheese will make it dense and rubbery. Beat it just until it is smooth and creamy.
  • Chill the cheeseball before serving. This will help it to set and firm up. Chill the cheeseball for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish the cheeseball before serving. This will make it look more festive. You can garnish the cheeseball with chopped nuts, crumbled bacon, or fresh herbs.
  • Serve the cheeseball with crackers, vegetables, or fruit. This will give your guests something to dip the cheeseball in.

Conclusion:

Cheeseballs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover cream cheese and cheddar cheese. Cheeseballs can be made with a variety of different ingredients, so you can easily customize them to your own taste. With a little planning, you can make a cheeseball that is sure to be a hit at your next party.
