Blue Moon Cheese Ball

With summer around the corner the thought of sitting on the deck with a cold beverage and friends brings a smile to my face. If we add a cheese ball made with beer and a little bit of orange zest that is going to make the afternoon even better!  I used Blue Moon because that’s what I had and like but any beer with notes of orange would be great!

INGREDIENTS
5 ounces softened cream cheese
1 cup of Parmesan cheese, grated
1/3 cup asiago cheese, grated
1/2 of one scallion white and green part, diced
1/3 cup of Blue Moon beer
1 pinch of garlic salt
1 Tablespoon of orange zest
1/2 cup of chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS
Add all of the ingredients except the pecans into a mixing bowl and mix until fully combined. Roll the mixture into a ball, cover with plastic wrap and Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up. When firm remove from fridge and roll in the chopped pecans. Store in fridge until ready to eat. Serve with assorted crackers.

Enjoy!
