Best Grandmas Cheese Ball Recipes
OLD SCHOOL CHEESE BALL
Gotta love this recipe. . .totally from a past generation, but not forgotten. I make this frequently and got the recipe from a co-worker named Karen about 8 years ago. Simple, yet a crowd-pleaser; the kids will even eat it! I have frozen this cheese ball with great results, so feel free to make 1 for now and 1 for later - just don't roll it in nuts until it has been thawed out.

Steps:
- Let all three cheeses get to room temperature.
- With a blender, mix together all ingredients EXCEPT the nuts.
- Shape into 1 or 2 balls (I always do 2 so that there are more nuts to go around).
- Roll each cheese ball in nuts, place on a piece of waxed paper and put in the fridge to set up.
- Serve with buttery crackers on the side.
TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS CHEESE BALL
I look forward to this simple, traditional cheese ball every year. It has been served during family Christmas Eve parties since before my time. The ingredients are few and inexpensive, and might be made year-round, but I reserve this one special appetizer for the holidays only to maintain its specialness. I love to serve Ritz crackers with the cheese ball to bring out its savory flavor.
