Pineapple Pecan Cheese Ball
Mix the Cheese Ball Base:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, drained crushed pineapple, chopped green onions, bell pepper, 1 cup of chopped pecans, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
Shape the Cheese Ball:
Form the mixture into a ball shape using your hands or plastic wrap. It helps to refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes to firm it up slightly before shaping.
Coat with Pecans:
Spread the remaining 1 cup of chopped pecans on a flat surface or shallow dish. Roll the cheese ball in the pecans until it’s fully coated.
Chill:
Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
Serve:
Serve chilled with crackers, pretzels, or veggie sticks.
Prep Time: 15 minutes | Chill Time: 2 hours | Servings: 10-12
