Cream Cheese Ball

Submitted by Color Guard Mom

"My mom passed down this cheese ball recipe to me. It is wonderful. We had it every New Year's Eve with party crackers. It's been a long time since I've made it myself, so I am guessing with the prep time and servings."

I made this for my cousin's wedding because the groom and his brother don't like macaroni salads. They loved it! I plan on making it again in a week for a family cookout

Very nice flavor! I quartered the recipe just for me and my husband. We both enjoyed it with crackers. Thank you!

Yummy cheese ball! We love cheese and crackers and this had great flavor. I omitted the pimentos and green peppers and used a low fat cream cheese. This tastes even better after the flavors have developed some. :) Thanks, Color Guard Mom!
