Elise Jesse’s Game-Day Cheese Ball
Bring serious game-day energy to your table with this football-shaped cheese ball. It’s a bold, creamy, bacon-loaded crowd-pleaser made with softened cream cheese, sharp cheddar, ranch and taco seasoning. Shape it into a football, then coat it with crispy bacon for the finishing touch. Serve with crackers, pretzels or tortilla chips, and watch it disappear before halftime. —Elise Jesse, Cincinnati, Ohio
