Classic Cheese Ball

This is my go-to classic cheese ball! It's deliciously cheesy with cream cheese, cheddar cheese, green onion, and seasonings shaped into a ball and rolled in crunchy pecans. It’s packed with flavor and makes the best holiday appetizer!

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 (8-ounce) cream cheese softened, packages quantity not specified
  • 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese finely shredded, sharp
  • ¼ cup green onion finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons parsley dried
  • 1 cup pecans finely chopped for rolling

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, add 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, 1 ½ cups sharp cheddar cheese, ¼ cup green onion, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, 2 teaspoons dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
  2. Mix together until incorporated. I put mine in the mixer and used the paddle attachment. That made it so easy. Otherwise, mix in a bowl until smooth.
  3. Roll into a ball and wrap it in plastic. Chill for at least an hour or until firm.
  4. Unroll the cheese ball from the plastic wrap and roll in 1 cup pecans, chopped.
  5. Serve with crackers or veggies, and enjoy!
