Theresa Rene 360's video: Best Philadelphia Cream Cheese Ball Holiday Recipe Ever 2 Ways

Hi All - in Todays video we are going to make my ALL TIME FAVORITE Philadelphia Cream Cheese Holiday Cheese ball 2 ways. The first Cheese Ball is a SHOWSTOPPER, complete with edible black olive "Penguins" and a cream cheese & pineapple "Igloo"! Next, we will make a quick & easy Cheese Ball, perfect if you are short on time, that your guests will love! Cheese Ball Base Recipe 8oz. Cream Cheese softened to room temperature 8oz. Can Pineapple – Drained & blotted dry (crushed, tidbits, chunks or rings diced up) 1/8 Cup – chopped scallions, finely minced white or red onion In a medium bowl – combine all ingredients until well incorporated. Line a small dome shaped bowl with plastic wrap – scoop the mixture into the smaller bowl and press to form to the bowl. Cover with waxed paper or plastic wrap, press out any air bubbles and refrigerate until firm (Ideally 1 hour) For Penguins & Igloo you will also need: Additional 8oz. Cream Cheese softened 2 Sizes of canned pitted black olives 1 Small peeled carrot or baby carrots 2 Tablespoons of softened cream cheese Assorted Frill Picks Parsley/Rosemary for garnish if desired Build Penguins as shown in the video. To assemble: Spread about ¼ cup soft cream cheese on serving platter. Place chilled Igloo flat side down onto the cream cheese layer. Use a spoon to carve out the “doorway”. Great time to taste the cheese ball! Gently frost the Igloo with 4 oz. soft cream cheese. Use the remaining cream cheese to build “bricks” for the door frame. Garnish the scene with penguins and greenery (optional). Serve with your favorite sturdy crackers and enjoy! For the Quick & Easy Cheese Ball you will make the same base recipe.
