Ingredients
- 2 8 oz packages cream cheese, softened slightly
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- 8 oz. shredded medium cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 ½ cups crushed chili cheese fritos
- ¼ cup chopped green onions or chives optional
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic and onion powder, and chopped green onion or chives.
- Mix with stand or handheld mixer. Can also mix with a spoon, but we find best results with a stand or handheld mixer for more even results.
- When cheese is mixed well, scoop up and roll into a ball shape, using your hands. Do this quickly, as the heat from your hands will melt the cheese.
- Once cheese has been shaped into a large ball, roll through crushed fritos.
- Chill in refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set.
- Serve with crackers, chips, vegetables, or more fritos, and enjoy!
