Cheese Ball Mixture

Method

Prepare Cheese Ball Mixture

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

  2. 2

    Chill Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to firm up.

Form and Coat Cheese Balls

  1. 3

    Shape Cheese Balls

    Once the mixture has chilled, use your hands to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) from the mixture. Place them on a plate or baking sheet.

  2. 4

    Coat Cheese Balls

    In a shallow dish, combine the chopped nuts and dried herbs. Roll each cheese ball in the mixture until evenly coated. Press gently to ensure the coating sticks.

  3. 5

    Chill Again

    Return the coated cheese balls to the refrigerator for an additional 15 minutes to set before serving.
