Aunt Kays Party Cheese Ball Recipes
BITS AND PIECES PARTY CHEESE BALL
The cheese ball is a stalwart of the Midwest cocktail party, where it can be fashioned from processed Cheddar cheese and port wine, or pineapple and cream cheese. This recipe relies on the leftover ends of good cheese or even just one kind of good-quality, sharp cheese like Gruyère. The idea of adding butter comes from Vivian Howard, the North Carolina chef who features a cheese ball with blue cheese, chopped dates and bacon in her cookbook "Deep Run Roots." She calls hers a party magnet, and indeed, for all of the shade thrown at cheese balls, they are often the first thing to be eaten. They can be served with chutney, jam or simply alongside the best-quality crackers you can find.

Steps:
- Allow the butter and cheeses to come to room temperature. They should sit out of the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Put everything except the pecans and parsley in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice. It should take about 4 minutes.
- Plop the mixture onto a piece of waxed paper and gently form into a ball. Place in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes or until firm enough to work with.
- Mix the pecans and parsley together on a large plate or a cutting board, then roll the cheese ball in the mixture. Cover any surfaces with a sprinkling of the mixture and pat into the sides until you have an evenly coated ball.
- Wrap well in plastic wrap and refrigerate. When ready to serve, let the ball sit out for at least a half hour to soften. Serve with good plain crackers or small toasts.

AUNT SUE'S SMOKY CREAM CHEESE CHEESE BALL
A family favorite for years and years: it's just not Christmas/New Years/Easter without Aunt Sue's cheese ball. She borrowed the recipe from a co-worker at the telephone company YEARS ago and has adopted it as her own. Easy. Quick. DELISH. If you want a fancier version, use cream cheese, worchester, accent, green onions....but substitute proscuito for the beef and add chopped roasted red peppers and minced black olives.

AUNT ANNIE'S CHEESE BALL
I'm asked to bring this to every family function. This is my great aunt's recipe and when she could no longer make it, I took over. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. You can use low-fat or fat-free cream cheese for this, but it will not get hard and form a ball. If you make it with low-fat ingredients, place the mixture in a bowl or decorative crock and top with crushed pecans. Cook time does not include chill time.
