Bacon-Jalapeno Cheese Ball Recipe

1 1/2 Cups of cream cheese (room temperature)

1 Jalapeno seeded and finely chopped

8 slices of bacon cooked crispy and crumbled

1 Cup Cheddar Cheese grated

1 Cup of toasted pecans chopped  ( almonds would work)

2 Teaspoons of sweet chili sauce (Asian)

2 Teaspoons of Worcestshire Sauce

Pinch of Cayenne Pepper

Dash of Smoky Chipotle Tabasco

3 Teaspoons fresh lime juice

1 Garlic clove finely chopped

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl, with-holding 1/2 of the bacon, 1/2 of the jalapenos, and 1/2 of the nuts for the outer coating.
• Form the mixture into a ball. (It will be sticky, so it may help to dampen your hands.)
• Spread the remaining bacon, jalapeno, and nuts in an empty pie plate.
• Roll the ball in the remaining outer coating ingredients.
• Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving with crackers or pretzels!
