I had no idea that a cheese ball could be this good. Last year I had the best cheese ball I ever had and now I get to share how crazy easy this appetizer is!
Ingredients
16ouncesCream CheeseSoftened (2 of the 8 ounce cream cheese boxes)
In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients and stir together until smooth.
Form into a ball and place on a large piece of saran wrap.
Place the cheese in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to firm back up. You can prepare this up to 48 hours ahead of time and leave it like this until you're ready to serve.
Meanwhile, mix the chopped pecans and parsley together and place on a plate.
Unroll the cheese ball and place in the nuts. Roll to cover and shape with your hands if necessary to keep the shape.
Serve immediately or store for a few hours in the fridge.
Notes
Covered well, this cheese ball will keep for 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
