    Shredded cheddar, ranch seasoning, and bacon! You can't go wrong with this Cheddar Ranch Cheeseball. It's simple to make and a real crowd-pleaser.

    Cheddar Ranch Cheeseball

    It doesn't matter what time of event or party we are hosting you will always find a cheeseball being served! My mom had one for every party and even as an appetizer on Christmas. They are my husband's favorite and anytime we plan an event his one request is a cheeseball! This Cheddar Ranch Cheeseball is one of my favorites and one that I think you will love also. 

    Cheddar Ranch Cheeseball Instructions:

    This recipe is so easy and SO good! All you need to do it in a large bowl mix together cream cheese and dry ranch package. Add your shredded cheese, green onions, and bacon and mix well and then shape into a ball. Chill for 1-2 hours to firm. Serve with crackers.

        Have you tried making it? It really is easy to make. I love that all I have to do is mix my ingredients and roll into a ball. Wear gloves when mixing with your hands if you want!

      I like to roll mine in chopped pecans to keep outside from being sticky.

      I love this recipe. I always roll the completed ball in shredded cheese to keep the outside from being sticky, and it looks fantastic. I usually make it a day ahead so the flavors can develop.

        Yes! We always make it before and I put plastic wrap on it and keep it in the fridge.
