Lots of flavor going on in this one, but we found they all went well together. Yes, you're right it makes a lot, but it seems to be just as good hours later at room temperature which is good for an open-house type party. The mixture holds in a ball shape well, and is also easy to spread.

Very, very good, Tweeky! I gave this to friends this Christmas, packed in 1 cup Christmas design canning jars and accompanied by a Christmas themed spreader. Consequently, I just mixed everything (minus the seeds) together and packed in the jars. No muss, no fuss, and everyone raved. (I had to make a second batch for my family, due to the sour looks I got for giving it all away!) Thanks for posting!

Excellent! I made one large cheese ball to make it easier to Christmas guests to "slice" a wedge for their plates. It worked great! I highly recommend making one, albeit very large, cheeseball if you have many guests or take it to a party. It maintains it's appetizing shape and it makes it easier for your guests. My photo shows just how large our cheeseball was! But, it was the best one I've ever made.
