Debbie J's Cheese Ball image

My dear friend, Debbie J., used to bring this cheese ball to office functions. She found another job a few years ago, so I had to start making my own! I think hers always tasted better - probably because I didn't have to do any of the work! LOL! But mine is pretty good too... Hope you enjoy!
