Title: bacon dips or appetizers?
Post by: becca on December 26, 2015, 11:18:26 AM
Thinking of doing a cheesy bacon style dip for a party tomorrow.  Anyone have tried and true recipes?

This may be less bacony than you are thinking, but I did a cheese ball for the first time at Thanksgiving and it was gone before any of the food for the actual meal was ready.  I've made it twice since then, and my brother just had some for lunch.

Mix together (I use my stand mixer) two packages of softened cream cheese, a packet of ranch dressing mix, and a few sloshes of Worcestershire sauce until well combined.  Add 2 1/2 cups of shredded sharp cheddar cheese and a handful or two of thinly sliced green onion, and mix well.  Shape into a ball, and roll in bacon bits.  (You can use the store bought bacon bits, but it is better if you make your own.)

I made something similar, in terms if ingredients, but melted together and gooey for dipping in my mini crock pot.  It was good, but got thick and dry as it was sitting, warm in the crock over a few hours.
