This is a great recipe, but a little bland. Adding dried cranberries really made it taste a ton better!

This was my first cheese ball. It got rave reviews. I have made this cheese ball 5 times now since Xmas, and it's been a hit every time!

I thought this recipe was a little bland as written. I thought all of the flavors needed to be stronger. I could not taste the cayenne or hot sauce at all, so I increased to at least 1/4 tsp of cayenne and 10-15 drops of Cholula hot sauce. Next time, I would probably add 1-2 more TBS of celery and onion, too, for more texture.

Our family loves cheeseballs and this is one of the best we've tried. I used reduced fat blue cheese and reduced fat cream cheese and you can't even tell. I was out of tabasco so I used about 8 drops of chili sauce and left out the cayenne pepper. This is great with crackers but goes well with celery and other veggies too!

I've made this twice in the last two weeks to rave reviews. I used 4 ounces of blue cheese (the Danish Rosenberg Mellow Blue kind)and I used red onion instead of cooking onion and added a few more dashes of Frank's Red Hot Sauce and a generous pinch of cayenne. I have used both chopped pecans and walnuts successfully.

very good! I prepared it the day before and served it with warm homemade bread: I know, something crunchy it should have been, but it was very very good!

I made this for a dinner party and it was a huge hit. I did not have any tabasco or celery so that was not added but I did add in some parsely and garlic and coated with dry roasted almond chunks. So yummy!

I was surprised with a solid 5 stars that this wasn't better tasting. I could barely taste the blue cheese (and I used all 4 oz.) and I couldn't taste the hot sauce/cayenne at all (and I sprinkled generously). I think this recipe has potential but next time would add even more blue cheese and more hot sauce. Hmmm...I wonder if a touch of chunky blue cheese salad dressing would do the trick!

Using ground smoked almonds instead of pecans is excellent as well...great crunch and smoky flavor matches well with the strong roquefort flavor.

This recipe is awesome! made last night and doubled the recipe. Only thing i did diffrent was add some galic salt.I also par melted the cheese in the micro so i could blend it easier.If you melt in micro, you will need to refrigerate and form it several times before it will hold its shape.

Yum! This was really good. Much better than store bought cheese balls. I didn't add the tabasco or cayenne this time but I'll try it next time.

Great Idea but needs more blue cheese flavor. I would probably double the blue cheese amount and then add additional spices. I expected it to have that blue cheese tang, which it didn't. The pecans were a nice touch. I mixed those in with the cheese ball as well. I would make this again but add more blue cheese.

I really love this recipe. I made this last night for Thanksgiving and even though turkey day isn't for another two days, I HAD to taste it and it is really good. The only changes I made were to use Neufchâtel and add more Tabasco. Using Neufchâtel made the mixture softer but that was easily resolved with the overnight chill.

I made this for the Super Bowl and it was a major hit. I made a variation that worked out well. I combined all of the ingredients except the hot sauce. Then I divided it into four and added a different hot sauce, ranging from Roasted Garlic to INSANITY, to each one. I then made four mini balls. That way, I had a cheese ball for everyone's taste. If you do this, note that you will need more pecans. Maybe a cup. Also, make sure you keep track of which ball has which hot sauce. I labeled mine, both on the baggie in the fridge and on the platter.
