Bacon-n-Ranch Cheeseball

The hubs work always has food around.  He is constantly telling me about such and such and who brought it in and that I should try it.

And I have to admit I am quite guilty about adding to the food there too.

Especially when I am trying a new recipe.  I love to get other people's feedback before I post about it and they are great to try things out for me.

This deliciousness was brought to his work and everyone loved it. So much that Pam had to make a trip to the grocery store to buy ingredients for two more.  The hubs brought the recipe home to me and I promised him I would make it soon.

Wow!  This cheeseball is amazing.  It is great with crackers or corn chips.  The bacon sends it over the edge (of course because everything is better with bacon--right?).  Even the kiddos thought it was pretty wonderful, which is quite the ringing endorsement for me.

Bacon-n-Ranch Cheeseball


1 package dry ranch dressing mix
2 tbsp sour cream
1 (8oz) block cream cheese, softened
8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
Bacon, cooked and chopped

Crackers/Corn Chips for serving   

1. In a medium bowl combine sour cream and dry ranch dressing mix, until completely combined. Add cream cheese and cheddar cheese and fold together until everything is equally distributed. 

2. Spread bacon on a plate, roll cream cheese mixture in a ball and then roll in bacon, completely covering entire outside.  Place on serving dish, cover, and chill at least 1 hour.  Serve with crackers or corn chips.  Store leftovers in refrigerator.  Enjoy!
