Michele’s Awesome Pecan Cheese Ball (TNT)
Michele’s Awesome Pecan Cheese Ball (TNT) 2 packages of 8 oz. Cream Cheese 1 package Ranch Dressing Mix 2 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese 1 1/2 cups chopped Pecans 1/4 cup bacon bits* Mash cream cheese, dressing mix, cheddar cheese, and bacon bits* together. Mix really well. Shape into a ball. Roll ball into chopped pecans. Refrigerate covered until ready to serve. This dip is wonderful with all kinds of crackers! Yummmmmm!!!! * Gail's Note : I added bacon bits to the cream cheese mix and doing so made this cheese ball even more AWESOME! I think I'll add about ~1/4 cup of thin sliced green onions to the cream cheese mix next time. Also, this can be easily frozen: All I did was divide the cheese ball into 4 smaller balls and then wrapped each one in some Press 'n' Seal. After that, I just placed 3 of the balls in a zip lock freezer bag and put them in the freezer for future munching later on! I got the original
