Cranberry Cheese Ball

Cranberry Cheese Ball Ingredients

• Goat cheese – Plain, allow to come to room temperature
• Honey – I love fancy honey, but any kind will work.
• Dried cranberries – If you can’t find plain dried cranberries, Craisins will work as well.  I prefer the low sugar version.
• Walnuts – Chopped or blitzed in a food processor.

How do you make a Cranberry Cheese Ball? (Step-by-step)

⭐ First, in a bowl combine cheese, honey, honey comb, and cranberries.  Stir until ingredients are evenly incorporated.

⭐ Next, form cheese mixture into a large ball (or small balls if you’re making minis!) and roll in the crushed walnuts.

⭐ Finally, serve on a fancy plate with your favorite crackers (try our two ingredient homemade crackers!) and ENJOY!

Tools we love

• End grain cutting board – This is my absolute favorite cutting board and the one that I get the most compliments on.  And p.s. I have a lot of cutting boards.  It really is absolutely stunning, and knows how to take a beating.  We use it every single day!
• Santuko knife – My favorite knife for cutting vegetables!  This knife is the perfect size and shape, handles great, and is super reasonably priced.  Also, I just love that it’s fun and colorful!
