A friend of mentioned how much she loves Swiss cheese balls, so I went on a search to find a recipe. Here's one from several different recipes I found on the web! My friend just had hip surgery done and I'm looking for ways to surprise her and keep her spirits up. I think this will do it, it's good! :)

Ingredients

8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (I used a shredded cheddar or mozzarella mix)
8 ounces swiss cheese, shredded
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1/3 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup finely chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans are good, I haven't tried toasted but I bet that would be good)
1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped (optional- you may also use chopped fresh parsley, or fresh thyme)

Steps:

Place cheddar, Swiss, and cream cheese, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, black pepper, and garlic salt in a medium bowl.
Place in a food processor and pulse until well blended.
In bowl, place nuts and chives, if using. Stir to mix.
Shape mixture into a ball, roll in the chopped nuts and chives(if using).
Wrap in waxed paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving time.
Serve with raw vegetables or crackers.

I'm not a huge fan of cheese balls, but this one was actually really good. The combination of flavors was perfect.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cheese ball turned out perfectly. It was creamy, flavorful, and had the perfect amount of crunch from the walnuts.
