Mom's Cheese Ball (The Best Ever) image

My mom gave me this recipe years ago. I don't think I've ever made this and not had someone ask for the recipe. I have had more "Can you make your cheese ball?" requests than I care to count. I don't really mind though because it is super easy for a party and mighty tastey.

Time 20m

Yield 1-2 balls, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces cream cheese, 2-3 pkgs room temp (3 will make 2 good sized balls and 2 will make 1 large ball with lots of flavor)
1 (3 1/2 ounce) jar Kraft pimento spread
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (seperated)
1 (8 ounce) package thin sliced beef lunch meat (I get the Carl Budding kind in the deli section I really don't know the exact package size. It's usu)
2 green onions (use both white and green)

Steps:

  • Make sure cream cheese is room temperature or it is a pain to mix.
  • Finely chop beef and green onions.
  • Mix cream cheese, pimento spread, 1 cup of the cheddar, beef and onion well.
  • Roll into ball(s).
  • Roll ball(s) in remaining cheddar (If you're making more than one ball you will probably need more cheese.
  • Refrigerate (The longer it refrigerates the better the flavors come together, but is good right away too.).
