CREAM CHEESE, HAVARTI, AND PARMESAN HERBED CHRISTMAS TREE

Cream Cheese, Havarti, and Parmesan Herbed Christmas Tree image

This delicious cream cheese-based appetizer is a great addition to any holiday party and is always a hit with guests due to its festive look! I have typically made this recipe for parties with the light or reduced fat options instead of regular and everyone has said it tastes great and looks even better. After the tree has reached desired firmness, set it on your serving platter and top the tree with lemon peel cut into the shape of a star. Serve with your choice of crackers. Triscuits® or Wheat Thins® work great!

Tips:

To soften the cream cheese quickly, cut it into small cubes or use a microwave on the defrost setting for 10-15 seconds at a time, checking in between.
Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use about half the amount.
If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the nuts and herbs by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely.
If you want a smoother cheese ball, you can process it for longer in the food processor. However, be careful not to over-process it, or it will become too soft.
To make the cheese ball ahead of time, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Havarti cheese balls are a delicious and easy appetizer that can be made with just a few simple ingredients. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a snack at home. With their creamy texture and flavorful coating, Havarti cheese balls are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
