NUTTY CHEESE BALL

Found this recipe in my Kitchen Aid mixer manual. I am sure it can be made just as easily without the mixer though. Cooking time is chill time.

Categories     Spreads

Time 1h15m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded swiss cheese
1 (8 ounce) package light cream cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
crackers or vegetables, for serving

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients except pecans and crackers in mixer bowl.
  • Attach bowl and flat beater to mixer.
  • Turn to speed 4 and beat about 1 minute, or until well blended.
  • On waxed paper, shape mixture into a ball.
  • Roll ball in chopped pecans.
  • Wrap in waxed paper.
  • Refrigerate until serving time.

Tips:

  • Choose the right nuts. For a creamy and flavorful cheese ball, use a combination of nuts such as cashews, almonds, walnuts, and pecans. You can also add seeds like sunflower or pumpkin seeds for extra texture.
  • Soak the nuts. Soaking the nuts overnight or for at least 8 hours will help to soften them and make them easier to blend. This will also help to remove any bitterness from the nuts.
  • Use a high-powered blender. A high-powered blender will help you to get a smooth and creamy cheese ball. If you don't have a high-powered blender, you can use a food processor, but you may need to blend the cheese ball for longer.
  • Add seasonings and spices. For a flavorful cheese ball, add seasonings and spices such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. You can also add herbs like fresh parsley or cilantro.
  • Chill the cheese ball before serving. Chilling the cheese ball for at least 30 minutes will help it to firm up and make it easier to slice and serve.
