I’m making some appetizers for a family Christmas party tonight and wanted to bring something a little more “cheerful”….I typed in “Snowman Cheese Ball” and Voila! A winter wonderland appeared right before my eyes! Serve with crackers and/or veggies!

This method looked “Comfy” so it was the chosen one…I doubled it and changed it around a bit with the ingredients I had on hand. You can do the same! Enjoy!
This is so adorable, cant wait to make one . . .
This is such a cute idea Janelle – cheese balls are so yummy and I love drawing in winter to the mix. I’m sharing with my FB page!
Very cute! Thanks for sharing.
How adorable! Thanks for the recipe!
Anyone else have trouble mixing this? It’s almost too thick for my hand mixer. Guess I should’ve gotten out the kitchen aid.
Is it 28 oz. of cream cheese, 2, 8-ounce packages of cream cheese, or what? I would like to make this for our New Year’s Eve party. Thank you!
2, 8oz of cream cheese 🙂
