The ultimate party snack is here! Combining the deliciousness of a dipped caramel apple and a classic cheeseball appetizer, this recipe is sure to be a hit.

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces softened cream cheese
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1½ - 2 Granny Smith apples, chopped small
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg,
  • 2 tablespoons caramel sauce (divided, more as desired)

You will also need crackers, pretzels, additional apple slices, etc. for serving.

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and cheddar cheese
  2. Next, add in apples, nutmeg, and 1 tbsp only caramel sauce
  3. Using your hands, form the mixture into a ball and add it to a large platter (we used some plastic wrap to smooth out and shape more once on a platter)
  4. After the cheese ball is well shaped, press crushed walnut pieces onto the sides and top of the cheese ball
  5. Once the outside of the cheese ball is fully coated, drizzle with another 1 tbsp caramel sauce (more as desired)
  6. Add crackers, pretzels, apple slices, etc., around the cheese ball and serve!
