You can make the cheese ball the day before and refrigerate it. Just wait to add the pecans before your ready to serve.  

If you have a holiday party happening soon or friends coming over for a football game this chheball would be a big hit! Serve it up with some Ritz crackers and celery sticks and your good to go. Let me tell you it will not disappoint.

You can also make these into single serve little cheese balls if you like. A little more work of course but they sure do look cute. This way everyone gets their own personal cheese ball. You can stick a pretzel stick through the center so it’s easy for your quest to grab. They are very cute. We just usually make the big cheese ball because it’s easy. And well. We like easy and quick. 

Cheddar Bacon Ranch Cheese Ball is simple to make with just 6 ingredients. And it goes super quick so you may want to make a few if your having more than just a few quests over or going to a party with a number of quests.

You can leave the pecans off if you like also but we have found when we have done that we have gotten the “look” so we always add them lol

So this is what you need 

In a mixing bowl combine, cream cheese, bacon, cheddar cheese, green onion and ranch mix.

Mix well and form into a ball

Arrange pecan pieces on a plate and roll cheese ball in pecan pieces.  

Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
