Crazy last minute shopping this morning, but I when I got back home there was your Christmas story post to put me back into the right frame of mind. Thank you, Helga, and Merry Christmas to you and yours. ❤

Love the iced ones better than those that are dry with sprinkles baked on. Cute story of freezing dough ahead of time. When my kids were young, and I was a busy working Mom, I made the dough ahead of time and placed in our basement freezer. The week before Christmas, I went down to get the frozen balls and they were gone! The elves must have eaten them!
@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspotКүн бұрын
HAHAHA! So, when I make white chocolate macadamia nut cookies, I often freeze another batch of dough for later, in balls. Had the same thing happen. My other half cleaned them out, LOL!

What is your suggestion for bacon?
@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspotКүн бұрын
A good quality bacon that has some meat for flavor. I use Masser's, Irish Isle provision or Whery's meats up here!

Helga: Merry Christmas. I think I might add a 1/4tsp of Horse Radish just for a different kick. I love Horse Radish, always a big jar in my fridge. This looks great. LOVED cheese balls since the 60's. Keep up these great videos. I was especially curious about the Cranberry Candy? I may try it yet? God bless: Dave in Berwick

If you roll it into a log, you get a better interior to exterior ratio.
