How to Make Cheese Balls That Will Wow Your Next Holiday Party

The mid-century design theme is currently taking over our offices, homes, and television sets. Our nostalgic craving for the swinging decades of yesterday moves from aesthetics and programming to cuisine with a throwback recipe beloved as much for its simplicity as for its flavor. The cheese ball is making a comeback and for good reason. This no-fuss appetizer is easy to make, can be prepared well ahead of time, has variations aplenty, and it’s likely to be the first thing to disappear at your next holiday party. Here’s how to make one.

1. Bring a cup of soft cheese such as cream cheese, goat cheese, quark, or mascarpone to room temperature. Once soft, stir it in a bowl with a wooden spoon until it’s slightly fluffy.
2. For additional flavor and texture, add a cup of shredded cheese such as Parmesan, Manchego, or Asiago and stir until combined.
3. Stir in additional ingredients such as spices, dried fruit, fried bacon bits, sliced scallions, or herbs such as chives, parsley, or shredded basil. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled.
5. Lay a sheet of parchment paper on a work surface and roll the cheese into a ball.
6. On another sheet of parchment, scatter toppings such as toasted and chopped nuts, herbs, bacon bits, or whatever else your taste buds desire.
7. Roll the cheese ball through the toppings until it is uniformly coated.
8. Refrigerate again until chilled.
9. Place the ball at the center of a decorative serving plate and scatter crackers or vegetables such as sliced carrots, bell peppers, cucumbers, or celery around it. Serve immediately.
