I'm cleaning out a friend's cupboards and found this recipe in a 2003 Kraft What's Cooking magazine. These sound fun and festive for the holidays (still months away), so I thought I'd post it in the hopes that I'd remember to try them. A serving, according to the magazine, is two truffles and five crackers. Cooking time is refrigeration time. Ingredients:
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened |
1 (7 ounce) package double shredded cheddar cheese |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 dash ground red pepper |
1/4 cup roasted red pepper, chopped |
1/4 cup green onion, chopped |
cracker |
shredded cheese (optional) |
chopped nuts (optional) |
paprika (optional) |
sesame seeds (optional) |
fresh parsley, chopped (optional) |
Directions:
1. Beat cream cheese, shredded cheese, garlic powder & ground red pepper till well blended. Split in half.
2. Add roasted red peppers to half and green onions to the other half. Stir each till well mixed. Cover.
3. Refrigerate 2-3 hours. (Flavors will blend).
4. Shape cheese mixtures into 1 balls. Roll in shredded cheese, nuts, paprika, sesame seeds or fresh chopped parsley-or whatever other ingredients you think would be fun.
5. Cover and refrigerate till ready to serve.
