Made for Please Review My Recipe Tag Event. This was enjoyed by everyone at my New Years Eve get together. Comments on the flavor and texture were overwhelming. I do have to tell you it was a bit of a chore to grate the Havarti, and finally found that the food processor was the ticket on this one, but don't exclude this cheese as it adds a wonderful flavor and texture to this cheese ball. I did make two, one rolled in chopped pecans and the other covered in chopped black olives for those who have sensitivity to nuts, either way was great. Thank You Lavender for a lovely recipe.

This recipe actually took a lot less than 30 minutes to prepare, but that's not a complaint, believe me! I actually formed the cheese into 2 balls & used close to 3/4 cup of chopped nuts for the coating! OUTSTANDING CHEESE BALLS & I'll be making this recipe in the future ~ Thanks for sharing it!
