How to Make Cheese Ball 2

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cheese ball to firm up slightly.
  3. Once chilled, roll the mixture into two equal-sized balls.
  4. Place chopped pecans or walnuts (approximately 1/2 cup) on a plate. Roll each cheese ball in the nuts until completely coated.
  5. Serve immediately or chill for up to 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!
