Ingredients

  • 1 8 ounce cream cheese - room temperature
  • 1.5 cups of dill pickles chopped small
  • 1/2 cup of bacon chopped - divided
  • 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • couple of sprigs of fresh dill- chopped

Instructions

  • Once cream cheese is soft, combine cream cheese, dill pickles, 1/4th cup of bacon, Worcestershire sauce, cheddar cheese and garlic powder in a bowl.
  • Mix with mixer until well combined.
  • Next take a piece of saran wrap and lay flat. Add cream cheese mixture to the middle and use the saran wrap to make a ball.
  • Chill in the fridge for a few hours. Once the ball has set, roll ball in remaining bacon and chopped dill.

Notes

Serve with crackers. I used real bacon bits in this recipe, to cut down on grease and it worked great.
