How to Make Beer Ranch Cheese Ball
- Shred 8 ounces of cheddar cheese and reserve 1 cup.
- In a medium bowl, combine the following ingredients using a hand mixer: 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup beer (any light beer works well), 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder.
- Gently mix in the remaining 7 ounces of shredded cheddar cheese until just combined.
- Place the cheese mixture on a large piece of plastic wrap. Shape it into a ball, using your hands or a spoon. You may need to add a little extra cheese to ensure the ball is completely covered.
- Tightly wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and the ball to firm up.
- Once chilled, remove the cheese ball from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly.
- Serve with your favorite crackers, vegetables, or breadsticks.
