Karen's Holiday Cheese Ball

Ingredients:

3 - 8 oz packages of Philadelphia Cream Cheese
3 - 6 oz packages of Buddy Ham, chopped
3 tablespoon fresh chopped chives or scallions
1 tablespoon (or less) minced garlic or 1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups pecans, chopped


Directions:

Prep all of the ingredients and place in large mixing bowl, except the pecans.
Place the chopped pecans on a large dinner plate, covering the plate but not to the edge.

Wash your hands and mix the cheese, garlic and chives thoroughly.  Leave hands slightly damp for easier results.

Form a ball and roll in chopped pecans until slightly covered.  Wash your hands again and return to rolling the cheese ball in the chopped pecans until completely covered.

Wrap in saran wrap and refrigerate 1-2 hours before serving.
Serve with your favorite crackers.
