Ingredients
Method
- Let cream cheese sit at room temperature for approx. 30 minutes
- Place cream cheese into medium size bowl. Soften cream cheese with spoon.
- Add onions, Worcester sauce, parsley flakes; mix well.

- Put cheese ball on to small plate and cover with foil or saran wrap.
- Chill in refrigerator until firm (about 2 hours or more).
- Once chilled, chop dried beef into small pieces. Roll cheese ball in beef until coated.

- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Can be made a day ahead and kept in refrigerator.

No playing, BonBon, I’ve never tried to make a cheese ball! I had no idea they were so easy to make, I am definitely going to try this because we have a few other parties to attend this season and I could make this for our family game night at the cabin too. Can’t wait to try it! Hugs, CoCo
