“This has been a big hit for many years as an appetizer, or just for a snack. It is always nice to have when friends drop by, and it freezes very well. If you enjoy nuts, roll the cheese ball in about a half cup of chopped pecans. Serve with crackers. Refrigerate overnight for the best flavor.” - by NANCIJANE

"The recipe shouldn't be salty. The dried beef has to be washed off before using. Most brands of dried beef will state this on the package. Hope this helps...." See more"
