Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (2 ounces)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • teaspoon cayenne
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 
  • 2 jalapeños stems and seeds removed, diced, divided
  • 6 pieces cooked bacon crumbled, divided (about 6 ounces)
  • ¼ cup Chopped Pecans roasted
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped bell pepper for rollng. Any color is fine, I used yellow bell pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, cilantro, garlic, cumin, cayenne, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, half of the diced jalapeños and half of the crumbled cooked bacon. Taste and adjust seasonings and add salt.
  2. Place the roasted pecans, the remaining diced jalapeños and bacon along with the diced bell pepper on a plate. Stir together so well mixed. Line a small bowl with plastic wrap. Add cheese mixture and bring edges of plastic wrap together, forming a ball. Refrideratet for 30 minutes then remove from fridge and form into a ball. Remove plastic wrap and roll the cheese ball to coat with the bacon- jalapeño mixture. Refrigerate for at least an hour. About 10 minutes before serving, removed from refridge.. Cheeseball can also be frozen, however do not roll in bacon-jalapeño mixture after freezing.
  3. Chill covered for at least an hour before serving. Serve with crackers.
