Cheese Ball:
- 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
- 2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tbsp Sour Cream
- ½ tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- ¼ cup Bacon, cooked, cooled, and chopped
- ⅓ cup Canned Jalapeños, diced
Topping:
- ½ cup Panko Bread Crumbs
- 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
- 3 tbsp Bacon, cooked, cooled, and chopped
To Make the Cheese Ball:
In a large bowl, mix all dip ingredients together well.
Place the mixture in the center of a piece of plastic wrap. Wrap the plastic wrap around the cream cheese mixture and form it into a ball. Refrigerate for at least an hour until it is firm.
Assembly:
Roll the chilled cheese ball in the toppings, pressing gently so it sticks to the ball without squishing it out of shape, until it is completely coated.
Place on a serving tray surrounded by your favorite dippers: crackers, vegetables, toasted baguette slices, etc.
