Pinecone Cheese Ball Appetizer Recipe

I saw these Pinecone Cheese Ball Appetizers floating around on Pinterest and thought, “NOOOO…I created that when I was 10!” My mom would give me the easy jobs to do at Thanksgiving and one of them was to make this cheese ball. One year I thought I was a genius by shaping it into a pine cone…apparently there’s some other geniuses out there, too. Either way, this is super easy to make and would be a great thing for Easter. I made this, this past weekend for my daughter’s birthday party, everyone loves it!
