A flavorful and easy-to-make cheese ball with a spicy kick, perfect for gatherings.
Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature.
Softened cream cheese is easier to mix and results in a smoother texture.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, Tabasco sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Shape the mixture into a ball using your hands or plastic wrap.
Using plastic wrap can help you achieve a more uniform shape without getting your hands messy.
Roll the cheese ball in the chopped pecans until fully coated.
Press the pecans gently into the cheese ball to ensure they stick well.
Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Refrigerating the cheese ball helps it firm up and enhances the flavor.
Serve the cheese ball with your choice of crackers or vegetable sticks.
Let the cheese ball sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving for the best texture.
