Cheese Ball


Pam and I had a wonderful time cooking together over Thanksgiving, so you will benefit from all the new recipes we decided to inflict upon our families! Our family tradition is to always have a bunch of appetizers in the early afternoon to hold us over until the turkey is done. Pam found this yummy cheese ball recipe to share, which was a hit! With all the holiday parties coming up I thought many of you might like to give this a try. This was a hit with everyone that day and my kids continued to eat it the next few days until it was gone. Enjoy, we did!


Yummy Cheese Ballhttp://www.sisterscafe.blogspot.com/
4 (8-oz) squares of cream cheese, softened
1 Tbsp onion salt (I added 3/4 Tbsp onion powder and 1/4 Tbsp salt)
1 Tbsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. dried parsley
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
chopped pecans

Set the cream cheese out on the counter well in advance, so it is soft and easy to mix.
Mix the cream cheese, onion salt, garlic salt, pepper, and parsley.
Then add the grated cheese. After it is mixed well, form into 4-5 balls and roll in chopped pecans.

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate. 

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

 I know, I know.  We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog.  I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing.  While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread.  More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast.  My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist.  What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin.  They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins.  These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
