Instructions
1. Mix Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped dried beef, and green onions. Use a wooden spoon or hand mixer to blend until smooth and fully incorporated.
2. Season
Add Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well. Taste before adding salt, as the dried beef is already quite salty. Adjust seasonings if desired.
3. Shape & Chill
Transfer the mixture onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Wrap tightly and shape into a firm, round ball using your hands. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to firm up.
4. Garnish & Serve
Unwrap and place the cheese ball on a serving plate. Optionally, roll it in extra chopped green onions for added color and freshness. Serve with Ritz crackers or your favorite crackers and vegetables.
Storage Tip:
The cheese ball can be made up to two days ahead. Keep wrapped in plastic in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Enjoy this creamy, savory, and slightly salty treat—a classic that always feels like home.
