These three cheese balls always make an appearance during the holiday season. They are something my Aunt Lori always brings and I love them!! They are also very easy and quick to make so I thought why not have them for Super Bowl.
These cheese balls will go great with a variety of crackers or vegetables. The dried cranberry cheese ball is slightly sweet and always a hit with the kids. It also happens to be my favorite one. The party and dried beef cheese balls are savory and are crowd pleasers as well.
