Pumpkin Cheese Ball

 I needed something easy for my work Halloween potluck and this was it!!  It tasted great too :)

Ingredients

  • 2 blocks (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened

  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar

  • 1 packet ranch seasoning

  • ½ cup cooked bacon bits

  • ¼ cup chopped green onions

  • Extra finely shredded cheddar for the outside

  • 1 bell pepper stem

  • Crackers or pretzel crisps

Mix everything except the extra cheddar and pepper stem.

Shape into a ball, roll in shredded cheddar, wrap in plastic wrap, and use rubber bands around the outside of the plastic to create pumpkin ridges. 

Refrigerate overnight.

Take rubber bands off before serving and serve with crackers and pretzels.
