Report
Pineapple cheese balls are a surprisingly delicious way to combine fruit and cheese into an amazingly scoop-able snack.
Share:
Ingredients
- Two 8 ounce packages cream cheese (Room Temperature)
- One 8 ounce can crushed pineapple (all liquid squeezed out)
- 1 ¾ cups Chopped Pecans (divided)
- 2 tablespoons green onion (chopped small)
- ¼ cup green bell pepper (minced fine)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Drain the crushed pineapple in a fine mesh sieve and press out all liquid until very dry.
- In a large bowl add the drained pineapple, cream cheese, 1 cup of chopped pecans, green onion, green pepper, salt and garlic powder. Stir well to combine.
- Transfer the mixture to a plate and form into a ball.
- Coat the cheese ball with the remaining 3/4 cup of chopped pecans, pressing them in ensuring it is well coated.
- Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours before serving. This is best if made the day before serving.
- Sprinkle with parsley when serving. Serve with a variety of crackers or pretzels.
Notes
- These freeze really well up to a month if wrapped in plastic wrap and sealed in an airtight container, defrost overnight before serving.
