What Is a Cheese Ball?
A cheese ball is a type of hors d’oeuvre that consists of a ball of soft cheese, often mixed with seasonings and covered in finely chopped nuts. Cheese balls are often available pre-made at the supermarket or cheese shop, but they are also easy to make at home. If you make your own cheese ball, you can experiment with ingredients and make it just the way you like it. Cheese balls are popular at parties, where they are often served with raw vegetables and crackers on which to spread the soft cheese. They are great for cocktail parties and particularly popular around the winter holiday season. However, cheese balls are versatile and can be a hit with guests all year round.
