Ingredients

Servings
  • 7 lices Bacon cooked until crispy, divided, center-cut
  • 8 oz. cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup jalapeño divided (save half for coating, minced
  • 1/2 cup swiss cheese shredded
  • 1 1/2 tbsp chives sliced
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
  • black pepper couple grinds
  • 3 tbsp Parmesan Cheese shredded

Instructions

  1. To make the ball: In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, Swiss cheese, chives, garlic powder, smoked paprika, 4 tbsp. of the jalapeno, and some pepper, and mix it with a hand mixer until combined well. Be sure to scrape up the sides and bottom of bowl with a rubber spatula.
  2. Take 4 slices of the cooked bacon and crumble it into the cheese ball mixture. Mash with a fork to really get it combined, then roll into a ball. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, make the coating. In a shallow dish, crumble the last 3 slices of bacon and combine it with the other 4 tbsp. of jalapeno and shredded parmesan. Stir to combine. Roll cheese ball in coating, pressing it on the outside to fully cover the exterior. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
