Is it weird that I have 7 containers of Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese in my fridge right now? Yeah, I don’t kid around. This time of year, you never know when you’ll have a last-minute party to go to or when your husband’s friends might POP over out of nowhere to watch the game on TV. I’ve pretty much become the Macgyver of quick and easy appetizers ideas, and this cheese ball is my go-to.
Walmart is my favorite place to stock up on this stuff because the layout makes it so easy to navigate; I can always find what I’m looking for. OR, if you don’t want to run in and pick up these items in-store, you can easily order all items for your holiday menu using Walmart Online Grocery Pickup! My store just started offering this and I’m psyched! So. Philadelphia cream cheese, Kraft Sharp Cheddar, Oscar Mayer Bacon, and Planters Nuts. You have those things on hand, you can make dips, cheese balls, spreads, whatever floats your boat all season long. 😊

Does this Cheese Ball need to chill?
Cheese balls are best if refrigerated for a minimum of one hour in order to allow the flavors to blend.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes. This cheese ball can be made up to two days ahead of time.
Can I serve this as a warm dip?
Yes! Here’s how: -Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for an hour to ensure a smooth consistency when it’s baked. Then, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese until smooth. -Add in the other ingredients minus the green onions and bake at 350 for 30 minutes. -Remove the dip from the oven, give it a little stir, top with green onions if desired, and serve!
