Great recipe, but I would recommend using sour cream instead of mayo. The mayo flavor was so strong that I decided to add three cloves of garlic and a green onion to cover it up. I liked it much better with the additions, so I will do that again next time.

Nothing is wrong with the recipe, but it's very boring, plain tasting, and not very impressive looking for a party. Also I don't like to have shredded cheese pieces whole in a spread.

Very good and easy to make. I did make some changes, used garlic salt instead of salt, cut cream cheese to 12 oz, used cheddar and an Italian 5 cheese blend, dried parsley flake and added real bacon bits, the bacon bits are a great addition. It does have to sit out a while to be a dip consistency, goes great w/triscuit flat bread crackers, thanks for the recipe!

Very good! I rolled the refrigerated cheese ball in slivered almonds which was a great addition.

I changed the recipe because of what I had and what I didn't have. Instead of mayo, I added sour cream. I also didn't have Parmesan cheese so I just added about 2 and a half cups of cheddar cheese. I also added chopped onions since we had them and more than 1/4 cup parsley. The dip was fantastic and great just out of the fridge! Will do again.

This is similar to the one my mom used to make and now I do. Ours is just cream cheese, cheddar cheese, sour cream and garlic to taste. Mix it all together and chill in the refrigerator while you chop up some walnuts for the outside. Shape into a ball (or any shape you desire) and cover with the chopped walnuts. It is quite tasty and very easy to make.

Oh my! This hit the spot! I made it as stated, but used dried parsley and added some garlic powder for added flavor. This was delicious! I will be adding this to my set of Bunco recipes... the girls will all LOVE it!

Super easy. I used the mayo but think next time I will use sour cream in its place. Since my kids don't like anything with spice I left our the hot pepper sauce. Also didn't use salt but I did use a little bit of garlic powder and onion powder for extra flavor. Very good.

This is a good staple recipe that most people will enjoy. It's a great dish to bring if you're not sure what your crowd will like. The leftovers store well and taste good for quite some time. Very good with Ritz or other butter flavored crackers. Save a little parsley and put a spring on top to make it look extra appealing.
