Best Apple Cheese Ball Recipes
APPLE CINNAMON CHEESE BALL
One of my friends made something similar to this at a party, and I loved it. I asked for the recipe but lost it, and ended up trying to make it by memory. It may not be the original recipe, but its darn good! It has a sweeter taste than your average cheese ball. Excellent with Sesame Seed Crackers.

This is an adorable little appetizer that's fun to make, fun to show off, and fun to eat. And it's tasty to boot. I understand this came from Southern Living, October 1998. Be sure to soften the cream cheese beforehand for ease of processing.

CARAMEL APPLE CHEESE BALL
One of my favorite treats is caramel and apples, most usually just the store-bought caramel will do. I'm not terribly fussy when it comes to something like that. However, if I'm entertaining, which I used to do quite a bit, I want to go a bit farther than a tub of dip and a cut-up apple. This was delicious and when I read the recipe in gourmet class, could NOT wait to try it. The first time I got to sample it, I didn't make it; the girl next to me did. She didn't like it. I told her she was nuts. It's a bit unusual for a cheese ball, but hey, who says the norm is always the way to go?? The cheeseball is an alternative to "straight" dipping apples. I like to drizzle the caramel on top of the nuts when serving. I have also just spread the mixture on a graham cracker and topped with an apple slice. It's up to you to use the caramel. Passive time is refrigerator time, but is very approximate.

The History of Apple Cheese Ball Recipes
The origins of apple cheese ball recipes are unclear, but they likely have their roots in the tradition of serving cheese as a snack or appetizer. Cheese balls have been popular in the United States since at least the 1930s, and recipes for the classic cheese ball often include other ingredients like herbs, nuts, or dried fruit. The addition of apples to cheese ball recipes is a more recent innovation, likely stemming from the popularity of ingredients like apple pie and other apple-based desserts. This combination of sweet and savory flavors has proven to be a hit among many home cooks and party hosts.How to Make an Apple Cheese Ball
While there are countless variations on apple cheese ball recipes, most follow a basic set of steps. Here is an example recipe:Ingredients:
- 1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup grated apple
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts work well)
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Dash of salt
- Crackers, pretzels, or apple slices for serving
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, grated apple, chopped nuts, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Stir until well-mixed, taking care not to overmix or the mixture will become too soft.
- Shape the mixture into a ball or other desired shape, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
- Once firm, remove the plastic wrap or foil, and place the cheese ball on a serving dish. Surround with crackers, pretzels, or apple slices for dipping or spreading.
