A cute way to serve a cheese ball that is perfect for the Fall season. Serve this with apple slices, crackers or whatever you prefer.
2 (8-ounce) blocks extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (8-ounce) tub chive and onion cream cheese
2 teaspoons paprika
½ teaspoon ground red pepper
1 broccoli stalk
Apples, crackers, etc. for serving
Combine cheddar cheese and next 4 ingredients in a bowl until blended. Cover and chill for 4 hours or until mixture is firm enough to be shaped.
Shape mixture into a ball to resemble a pumpkin. Smooth entire outer surface with a spatula or table knife. Make vertical grooves in ball, if desired, using fingertips.
Cut florets from broccoli stalk, and reserve for another use. Cut stalk to resemble a pumpkin stem, and press into top of cheese ball. Serve cheese ball with apples, crackers, etc.

@10pdf - Thank you. I would probably just use plain cream cheese, if you can get it and add some scallions or chives to that. It might not be thick enough with mayonnaise.
