Perfect app for the holidays! So good!!
Ingredients:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
¼ cup sour cream
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (I used the triple cheddar mix.)
¼ cup parmesan cheese, shredded
¼ cup onion, finely diced
½ teaspoon garlic powder
pinch cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon lemon juice
¼ teaspoon pepper
⅓ cup dried cranberries
½ cup pecans, roughly chopped
Directions:
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheeses, lemon juice, onion, dried cranberries, pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder in a large bowl.
Beat until well combined.
Remove the cheese mixture from the bowl and lay on top of a piece of plastic wrap. Wrap the plastic tightly around the cheese then shape into a ball. Place the cheese ball in the refrigerator to harden, at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
Remove the cheese ball from the refrigerator and roll in the chopped pecans. Place on a serving plate and serve with crackers.
