• 1 Block of Cream Cheese (softened)
• 1 Block of Sharp Cheddar Cheese (finely grated)
• Garlic Powder (to taste)
• Paprika (to taste)
• Chopped Pecans
• Green Onions (optional)

1. Mix cream cheese, garlic powder and paprika in standing mixer until well blended and spreadable.
2. Keep adding spices till it has the right flavor with a perfect amount of kick.
3. Add in the cheddar cheese and green onions.
4. Roll into a ball and roll into the chopped pecans and let it chill in the fridge for about an hour before serving.
5. I like to serve this with the Townhouse buttery crackers.

I make this for all of our family's winter hoilidays and this is a big favorite. I know I made something different for a summer holday and they were disappointed people there. So now, I make this into a dip for Summer events. I just eliminate the chopped pecans and don't chill before it's served.
