Christmas, or Any Time Chipped Beef Cheese Ball
"I am terrible about not asking for a recipe, I was watching a girlfriend make this and i just remembered the ingredients. Not sure if i got the amounts right but I have fiddled with it for years and this seems the best. You could also cover it with nuts, or for a Daytona 500 party, I shaped it with a ring mold, covered it with finely chopped black olives and called it a Cheese Tire!"

This is just like the cheese ball my Uncle Toby has made for decades. Soooooo yummy! Thanks for posting! -
This is the same one my mom makes and it is TO DIE FOR. We eat this all year round with any type of cracker--ritz is my personal favorite:) Thank you for posting this b/c I never know the exact measurements and I have to end up calling my mom who tells me "a dash here, a drop there". I omitted the parsley and pimiento simply b/c I didn't have it-but I will have to give it a try sometime. This also makes for a beautiful appetizer! OH! And you can cut calories by using a reduced fat cream cheese and a whole wheat cracker. thanks so much Chilepepper!

<p>As of 3-31-13......I am now a working mom to a lively 15 year old. Wow, I have not updated this in 5 years. We have moved fron Valparaiso, to Chesterton, to South Haven and are in Portage,IN. This is my husbands home town. I am working, though not happpily at the McDonalds in Burns Harbor. We still have Rocky the Brittany Spaniel. We have 3 cats. Nilla Kiki, who came up to the door of the restaraunt I worked at when we lived in South Haven. We moved to Portage in 2011. Tony, my hubby, moved to our new trailer which needed some work. Our daughter Allegra stayed with Grandma and I, and Kiki stayed with a friend. In June of 2011 we all moved into where we live now. In January of 2012 a Facebook friend who lived in Kentucky, said she had White Kittens. I joked if she would deliver I would take a female. Well on 1-15-12 she brought us Gracie Lynn. Then on July 3rd a kitten showed up at our house who is now Samson Anthony Hughes. My husband, the cat hater decided to keep him as his own. I would rather own my own restaurant than work at Micky D's, but there are bills to pay. Ally, as we call her wants to be a Pharmacist, and she is an honor roll student know and I can't let her down.</p>
