Ingredients

Units Scale

Pistachio Cream Cheese Ball:

  • 8 oz cream cheese (room temp)
  • 4 oz sharp white cheddar (grated)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup pistachios (roasted and chopped)

Other Grazing Board Ingredients:

  • carrots (sliced)
  • red bell peppers (sliced)
  • broccoli crowns (shopped)
  • 12 honey crisp apples (sliced)
  • 1 pkg Cheddar & Red Pepper Artisanal Crisps
  • 1 pkg Taralli Crackers


Instructions

Pistachio Cream Cheese Ball:

  1. You’ll want to prep the cheese ball a few hours or 1 full day in advance so that it can harden properly. 
  2. To start, you’ll want to mix your room temperature (not melted) cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce in a medium size mixing bowl. Mix until the ingredients are fully combined. 
  3. Wrap wax paper around the cheese. Place the wrapped cheese in the fridge for about an hour. 
  4. While it’s chilling, add your pistachios to a small sauce pan over medium low heat. Toast the pistachio for about 5 minutes. Transfer the pistachios to a cutting board and chop the roasted pistachios into small pieces.
  5. After the cream cheese has chilled, remove it from the fridge and form it into a round ball. Roll the ball in the crushed pistachios and place it back in the fridge until you’re ready to make the grazing board.

How to Make the Grazing Board:

  1. Start by cutting your carrots, red bell peppers, broccoli crowns, and honey crisp apples. 
  2. Start by placing the pistachio cream cheese ball not he board. Then, add in your sliced vegetables and fruit. Layer in the crackers, and place a small cheese board knife next to the cheese ball.
  3. Enjoy at your next holiday party with friends and family!
