We made this for a Thanksgiving appetizer and it was fantastic! It was super quick and easy and everyone absolutely loved it! I highly recommend it.

This was delicious and easy to make! After I finished the recipe, I grated some cheddar cheese and rolled the cheese ball in it to add more to the look. I made it for a get together and I received a lot of compliments! Yum yum yum!

This has become a tradition in my family for Christmas Eve. I do it a touch differently, though... I purchase a superior quality artisan sourdough loaf and I cut a hole out in the middle, which I fill with the cheese mixture. I rip up the large piece of bread that I removed and serve it around the round, along with variations of crackers, veggies, and ciabatta crips. I also add a bit more Worcestershire to the recipe, but that's mostly because I am addicted to Worcestershire! All in all, without this recipe, I would have no tradition! Thank you so much!

I didn't care for the taste but it was a big hit at the buffet. Maybe just me?

I made this for my mother's 80th birthday party last month and it was a HUGE hit. The only thing I added was 3 drops of Tabasco and rolled it in crushed pecans. Everyone wanted the recipe and there was very little left for me to eat afterwards. Will make this again and again.

This was the first cheese ball I've made and I used this recipe for the cheese ball in a cheese ball igloo. I added a bit of mozz. and cheddar for a bit more diversity in taste. It just didn't have any kick. There was most of the cheese ball left at the end of the party. Maybe I'll try salmon or something else to give it a better taste and keep people coming for more.

This was GREAT! I used chopped green onions instead of the chives just to use what I had on hand. Loved it... and no nuts!

Very good! I got lots of compliments. I will definitely make this again, even though I really hated the part when I had to "touch" the sticky cheese mixture to make it a ball.

This was well received. It was the 1st time I made a cheese ball, easy! I added dill and did not have dried chives. I also switched a monterrey jack cheese blend for the parmisian cheese. I rolled it in chopped pecans. It was great and I would make again for sure!

I made this cheese ball exactly, and it just tasted too much like cream cheese and garlic powder. I doubled all spices, except for the garlic powder. It tasted a little better. Thanks!

My family RAVED about this cheese ball recipe. I made it with one regular cream cheese and one light cream cheese (just to cut back on a few calories and make it a bit more spreadable). In addition, I used Light Hellmanns' mayo instead of full fat. The texture and taste were not compromised one bit. I also doubled the dried chives and added a bit more garlic powder. Otherwise, I followed recipe. I spooned it into a large piece of tin foil and semi-shaped it into a ball before I wrapped it up. I unwrapped it the next day and rolled it in a combo of crushed sliced almonds and dried parsley. Everyone loved it! One ball was the perfect amount for a 4-pack box of Ritz crackers. I will most certainly make this one again.

So easy and so good! I added some white cheddar and onion powder as others suggested and added double the dried chives and garlic powder. I also used reduced fat cream cheese and replaced the mayo with nonfat plain yogurt to try cut calories.

I always get compliments when I make this cheese ball, and it's so simple. I follow the suggestions of others and add season salt and cheddar cheese for extra flavor. I use fresh oregano and chives when I have them, and after allowing it to setup in the fridge for awhile I cover it with nuts (almonds so far, but I think pecans would taste good too). This recipe makes a lot, but can be easily halved. It has become a mainstay quick recipe to make when guests come over.

This was AWESOME!!! Made it for Super Bowl and it was to die for. Everyone loved it so much! I took the suggestion of some others by adding some garlic powder and a bit of season salt. I did add a little shredded cheddar but was not necessary to hold it together. It held together wonderfully. I rolled it in chopped walnuts as I had no pecans, then shaped it into a football. It was a hit. Was perfect!!

This was by far the best cheese ball I've ever made! I halved the recipe for a dinner party and they were scraping the plate clean. I added a few things to the recipe as well:finely chopped green onion, garlic salt, onion powder, a dash of seasoned salt and just a bit of grated cheddar to help hold it all together. Yum! This will be my new & easy standby for parties. Thanks!
