EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Make a stunning presentation by sprinkling the cheese ball with chopped fresh parsley. Place cheese spread on a pretty serving platter, and surround it with a variety of crackers so guests can choose what they like. Try one of the cracker variety packs containing several types of crackers in one box.

Add about 2 teaspoons of a favorite dried herb—basil works especially well—to the cheese mixture for an extra layer of flavor.

This year, I cut the recipe in half and rolled half in nuts and the other in parsley. Guest voted that the parsley was even better. I also double the garlic powder, but I felt it was saltier this year. I'm not sure if I accidentally doubled the salt too or if the extra garlic powder made it saltier. Try rolling the cheese roll in Parsley!
