| Eagle Cheeseball |
Independence Day- In 1776, 13 colonies signed the Declaration of Independence and declared themselves a new nation. 4th of July is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, picnics, bbq’s, and now EAGLE CHEESEBALLS! Enjoy!
Cheeseball Ingredients:
2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
1 (1 oz) package ranch dressing mix
2-1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
*1/2 cups chopped pecans
*1-1/2 oz (1/2 package) real bacon bits
Mozzarella Cheese (Outside of cheeseball)
Whole Pecans (Outside of cheeseball)
Black Olives (Outside of cheeseball)

Mash cream cheese, mix in other ingredients, wrap with Saran Wrap, and refrigerate. For the best flavor let it stay in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Be sure to use ranch dressing mix.
*Bacon bits and pecans are optional and you can use more or less if desired.
Mold Cheeseball into the shape of an Eagle
Layer Pecans starting at the bottom of the cheeseball.
Layer With Mozzarella cheese using the picture for reference.
Use black olives for eyes.
Cut the yellow pepper and insert into cheeseball for the noise.

That is absolutely adorable and actually looks doable! I am going to try this!
Oh my god, cheese balls, yes please any day is great for them. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
That looks so cool! I am going to have to try this. I love a good cheese ball, but in the shape of an eagle…AWESOME!
Loving all of the details of this snack. Cheese balls are my fav and this one is totally on theme for the fourth of July.
I love cheese balls!! Sharp cheddar and pecans are the perfect combo!! Love the eagle shape
I love this Eagle Cheeseball, but I don't think I could ever eat it once I made it. It's too too cute!
Do you have a recording? The decorating process is really hard for me.
Thank you so much! It was so simple! I was shocked it took all of 10 minutes.
I agree, any day is a great day for a cheeseball. I love them.
The beauty of this eagle is you can really use any recipe. It was such a hit. 🙂
I love a good cheeseball. I think I am going to start molding one for every holiday.
Thank you! Pecans are my absolute favorite!
Haha, that was the biggest issue with this cheeseball. No one wanted to cut into it. 🙂
I did not do a recording. I will absolutely do that next time I make it. Great idea!
This is the prettiest cheeseball that I have ever seen! Pinning this!
