Want a great neighbor/friend gift? How about a Cheese Spreader and a homemade cheese ball?.....
To showcase the cute cheese spreaders on my Pampered Chef, website-outlet I found a few great cheese ball recipes online. I let the guests who visited my boutique booth over the weekend sample these yummy recipes. I got quite a few requests for the recipes.....so here they are! I found them all at http://allrecipes.com/Default.aspx .
(By the way I downsized each recipe so that only one package of cream cheese was used for each cheese ball. They were all a nice size) ALSO to purchase one of the cheese spreaders above visit my personal website....listed at the end of this post.

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce
1 pound shredded Cheddar cheese (Using my Microplane Adjustable Grater)
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped (Used my Food Chopper)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (Kitchen Shears)
Directions
1. In an electric food processor or blender, combine cream cheese, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and hot pepper sauce. (In my Classic Batter Bowl*)I combined the ingredients with one of my Bamboo Spatulas*.No need for a food processor.) Blend well. Add Cheddar cheese and process until the Cheddar is fine, but still very visible. Shape the mixture into balls or logs. Wrap individually in plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
2. While the balls are in the freezer, combine the ground pecans and parsley in a shallow bowl. Remove the balls from the freezer and roll them in the pecan and parsley mixture.
