Whoooo You Lookin' At?

Hey everyone, how's this for thinking outside the hog! Love my little pig dip dish but I also saw something else... a cute owl for Halloween! Couldn't wait to try this out as a classic cheese ball.
 Garnishments are sliced almonds, carrots and olives for eyes. If you don't have a cool pig dish (doesn't everyone???), simply chill the cheese mixture, place on some plastic wrap/wax paper, shape it into a ball, then roll in chopped nuts. I  made approx 1/3 of the recipe for this dish.


Party Cheese Ball from Kraft
2 (8oz) packs of cream cheese, room temp
8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
1 Tblsp finely diced onion
1 Tblsp finely diced red bell pepper
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp lemon juice
Dash of cayenne pepper
1 Cup toasted, chopped pecans
  1. Mix the two cheeses well, stir in the rest.
  2. Chill several hours, shape into a ball and roll in nuts. 
  3. Serve with crackers.
