This cheese ball is great for holiday parties, or just a fun get-together! Serve with crackers, corn chips, or raw cut veggies.
Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 ½ cups shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
- 1 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup spicy cheese-flavored cornmeal snack (such as Cheetos® Flamin' Hot)
Directions
Step 1
Beat cream cheese, 1 cup Cheddar cheese, pepper Jack, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, hot sauce, parsley, onion powder, and garlic powder with an electric mixer on low speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Beat in remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar until just combined, about 15 seconds.
Step 2
Place a large piece of plastic wrap on a clean work surface. Place cheese mixture in the center of the plastic wrap. Pull up edges of the plastic wrap to shape the mixture into a ball. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
Step 3
Crush snack chips and place in a shallow dish. Unwrap the cheese ball and roll in crushed chips, pressing gently to coat. Serve immediately.
Cook’s Notes:
It is best to buy blocks of cheese and shred yourself for this recipe as they tend to blend better than pre-shredded, resulting in a creamier mixture.
