BRAUNSCHWEIGER BALL

Provided by Bernadette H

Categories     Other Appetizers

Time 5h15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb braunchweiger (i prefer koegel's)
12 oz cream cheese (reserve 3 oz. for frosting ball)
6 green onions, chopped fine.
2 Tbsp milk or beer, your choice!
2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
6 sliced olives or capers, or parsley!! to garnish finished ball.

Steps:

  • 1. Into my Large stand mixer I add the braunschweiger and cream cheese, onions, beer and worcestershire sauce. I mix it very well so there are not big clumps of braunschweiger or cream cheese.
  • 2. I turn it out onto waxed paper or parchment. I form the ball or make smaller ones for gifts to share, at this point. Using the leftover creamcheese for frosting the balls, them garnish them how ever I think is neat. Use capers, green or black olives, parsley...basically anything savory.
  • 3. Place wrapped into the refrigerator for 5 hours to set up!!! You will get loads of compliments and raves for the recipe!!!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cream cheese for a smooth and creamy cheese ball.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients.
  • Grate the onion and pickle finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the cheese ball.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the onion and pickle by hand.
  • Be careful not to overmix the cheese ball, or it will become too soft.
  • Chill the cheese ball for at least 2 hours before serving, or overnight for the best flavor.
  • Serve the cheese ball with crackers, vegetables, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Braunschweiger cheese ball is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover Braunschweiger, and it is sure to be a hit with your guests.
