This is a cheese ball that has olives, butter and garlic in it, and it is rolled in walnuts - we enjoyed it every year at Christmas as children. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup butter, room temperature |
1 (5 ounce) jar pimento-stuffed green olives, drained and minced |
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese and margarine until well blended. Mix in the green olives and garlic powder. Shape into a ball, and roll in chopped walnuts to coat. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving, but preferably overnight. Serve with an assortment of crackers.
