Title: Pioneer Woman's Cheese Ball
Categories: Pork, Cheese, Dairy, Vegetables
Yield: 9 servings
8 sl Smoked bacon; cooked,
- drained, divided
8 oz Softened cream cheese;
- diced
8 oz Grated white Cheddar cheese
2 tb Sour cream
1 tb Ranch seasoning
5 Scallions; white parts fine
- chopped, green parts thin
- sliced
Cooking spray
Crackers; to serve
Add two slices of cooked bacon, the softened cream
cheese, grated cheddar, sour cream, ranch seasoning and
scallion whites to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse
and then run the processor on low speed until everything
is well blended. (If you don’t have a food processor,
dice the bacon and then mash everything together in a
bowl using a fork.)
Finely chop the remaining six pieces of bacon. Toss the
bacon bits together with the sliced scallion greens on a
large, shallow plate. Spread the mixture out into an
even layer on the plate.
Scoop the cheese mixture into a small bowl. Spray your
hands with a thin coating of cooking spray, then shape
the cheese mixture into a ball. Place the cheese ball on
the plate with the bacon and scallions; roll the ball
all around the plate to coat it with a layer of bacon
and scallions. Use your fingers to pick up leftover bits
from the plate and press them into place on the cheese
ball.
Place the coated cheese ball in the center of a serving
plate, and cover the plate with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the cheese ball for at least one hour or up
to eight hours.
Remove it from the fridge 30 minutes before serving.
Arrange crackers all around the cheese ball, add a small
cheese knife to the plate.
