Frosty the Cheese Ball

MAKES: 3 cups

PREP: 15 Min

We bet you've never built a snowman like this before! Frosty the Cheeseball is our unique take on a favorite party appetizer. Not only is he delicious and easy to whip up at a moment's notice, but he's got personality too! With a few veggies and a little imagination, you can make this cheeseball totally your own (and guests will love it!).

What You'll Need

2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 (3-ounce) container real bacon bits
1 1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 scallions, finely chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon prepared white horseradish
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

What to Do

In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients; mix well.
Divide the mixture into three balls: one small, one medium, and one large. Arrange the balls on a serving platter in a line to form a snowman lying down.
Serve, or cover and chill until ready to serve.

Serving Tip

It's fun to garnish this with sliced black olives for the eyes and mouth, a baby carrot for the nose, red bell pepper triangles for buttons, and pretzel sticks for arms, but feel free to use any of your favorite edible delights.

I don't like walnuts, so I would not make this. However, I always make a Bleu Cheese cheese ball rolled in cut fresh chives, and a Cheddar Cheese cheese ball rolled in crushed fresh bacon bits. I would top it off with a Dill Weed cheese ball rolled in dehydrated dill weed. It provides a variety of flavors that is sure to appeal to more people along with a colorful presentation. I would also include celery stalks and carrot sticks in the vegetable selections.

This was very good, and the presentation was PERFECT! Easy to make, with everyday ingredients I usually have on hand. Perfect for the Christmas centerpiece on my appetizer table.
