By
These Cheese Balls are very versatile and come handy in crisis situations. Its a great party snack and goes very well with drinks. Kids love it too. So when you intend to make this, make it in a large quantity, say double or triple the quantity mentioned in the recipe. You can use whatever you like and the rest just arrange it in a plate and put it in the freezer for about an hour. Once the balls freeze, put them in a ziplock bag for later use.
