Tips & Techniques

  • Special Touch

    Sliced apples make a fun addition to this appetizer. Toss them with lemon juice to prevent browning.

  • Storage tip

    Cheese balls can be stored tightly covered in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks or in freezer up to 4 weeks. Thaw frozen cheese balls in the refrigerator about 6 hours before serving.

Ingredients

  • 2  packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
  • 2  tablespoons finely chopped onions
  • 1  teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4  teaspoon ground mustard
  • 2  cups shredded Cheddar cheese (8 ounces)
  • Paprika
  • Cinnamon sticks and fresh sage leaves, if desired
  • Assorted crackers, if desired

Directions

  1. 1Beat cream cheese, onion, Worcestershire sauce and mustard in large bowl until blended. Mix in Cheddar cheese. Cover and refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm enough to shape.
  2. 2Divide cheese mixture in half. Shape 1 half into a ball on waxed paper. Sprinkle another piece of waxed paper with paprika. Roll cheese ball in paprika, coating thoroughly. Mold into apple shape. Repeat with remaining cheese mixture.
  3. 3To garnish, make small depression in stem ends of apples. Cut 2 small pieces from cinnamon stick. Insert cinnamon stick pieces for stems. Insert sage leaves. Serve cheese balls with crackers.

great recipe. you may need to chill the mix slightly before you shape. It was a bit soft when first out of the mixer.
