Classic Cheese Ball

Ingredients for Classic Cheese Ball

• 230g cream cheese, at room temperature

• 60g shredded sharp cheddar cheese

• 60g Brie cheese, rind removed

• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

• 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoons hot sauce, or to taste

• 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

• 1/2 teaspoons onion powder

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

• 170g toasted pecans

Combine the cream cheese, cheddar, Brie, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder in a bowl. With an electric mixer, beat on medium speed until incorporated. Add the parsley and continue to beat on low speed until just combined. Form the mixture into a ball and refrigerate until set.

While the cheese ball sets, coarsely chop the pecans and spread on a rimmed plate.

About 30 minutes before serving, remove the cheese ball from the fridge. Roll the ball in the pecans, pressing them firmly to the ball, until completely covered. Let soften at room temperature for 30 minutes. Serve.
