Creating a Chipped Beef Cheese Ball is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients and allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature.
2. Mix Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese.
3. Add Chipped Beef: Stir in the chopped chipped beef and green onions until evenly distributed.
4. Incorporate Seasonings: Add Worcestershire sauce, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until fully combined.
5. Form the Ball: Use your hands to shape the mixture into a ball. If the mixture is too sticky, wet your hands slightly.
6. Chill the Cheese Ball: Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld and the ball to firm up.
7. Coat with Nuts: If using nuts, spread them out on a plate. Once chilled, roll the cheese ball in the chopped nuts until well-coated.
8. Serve: Place the cheese ball on a serving platter and surround it with crackers or fresh veggies.
