The blend of chicken, cream cheese, curry and chutney is wonderful. It can be served in a single cheese ball or, often, I roll portions into small balls and serve with crackers or breads in place of butter. Ingredients:
1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened |
1 cup finely chopped, cooked chicken or turkey |
3/4 cup finely chopped toasted almonds |
1/3 cup mayonnaise (hellmann's is good) |
2 tbs chopped chutney (major grey's works well) |
1 tbs curry powder |
1/4 tsp salt |
flaked coconut or chopped parsley or finely ground nuts (if desired) |
assorted crackers or breads |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, stir together cheese, chicken, almonds, mayonnaise, chutney, curry powder and salt. Chill several hours; shape mound into large ball or small individual serving balls.
2. Roll in flaked coconut or chopped parsley or finely ground nuts. If you use as individual servings, eliminate outer coating.
3. For gift giving, wrap with plastic film and tie with ribbon; set on top of a box of crackers wrapped in colored foil. Tie all together with ribbon.
4. Makes 2 1/3 cup cheese ball
