Ingredients

  • 2- 8 Oz packages of cream cheese semi-softened
  • 8 slices of bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup of Colby Jack Cheese
  • 1 tablespoon of chopped green onion
  • 1 cup of chopped pecans

Instructions

  • Combine cream cheese, bacon, cheese and onion using your kitchen aid until it is well incorporated.
  • Form the cream cheese into a ball.
  • Spread the pecans out onto a plate and then roll the cream cheese ball in the pecans until completely covered.
  • Place the cheese ball and on a plate and cover until ready to serve.

Notes

If combining the ingredients my hand, you might want to make sure the cream cheese is completely softened and then refrigerate the mixture covered for a couple of hours before forming it into a ball.
