Cheese Ball

My sister-in-law gave me this recipe and I loved it so much that for Christmas, they gave us a cheese ball serving set.  Now, my side of the family usually requests that I bring this to holiday gatherings.

Ingredients:

• 1 8-oz package cream cheese
• 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
• 1 Tablespoon finely chopped green onion
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
• 1/2 cup sliced almonds
• chopped parsley

Preparation:

Soften the cream cheese.  Add the remaining ingredients except for the almonds and parsley.  Mix until well blended.  Spoon onto wax paper.  Mold into a ball using wax paper to protect your hands.  Refrigerate for several hours.  Roll in almonds and parsley.  Keep refrigerated.  Remove from the fridge about 15 minutes before serving.
