Holiday Cheeseball Bites, just took the regular cheeseball to a whole new level. These Holiday Cheeseball Bites, have all the flavors in just one bite. They are so easy to make and taste amazing. These are by far, the best holiday appetizer.

These Holiday Cheeseball Bites are the perfect appetizer for any of your holiday parties. They are sure to please even the pickiest cheeseball lovers.

I love our grandma’s cheeseball during the holidays, but I don’t like that I can’t have some of the delicious peanuts or bacon bits in every bite.

Once I found out there was a way to have everything I loved in my holiday cheeseball, I knew I had to give these a try.

What could I use in place of walnuts in this Holiday Cheeseball Bites recipe?

If you are not much of a walnut fan, don’t worry. You could easily substitute the walnuts out for something else.

I personally prefer using almonds or pecans, when rolling my cheeseballs, but you could also roll it in shredded and shopped cheese, such as parmesan, mozzarella, or cheddar.

I also like rolling mine in just bacon, and nothing else.

They are also very delicious plain, without being rolled in anything extra.

What could I dip in these Holiday Cheeseball Bites?

The most critical part of this recipe, is deciding what types of food to dip in it. I personally wouldn’t mind going in with a spoon, but it may taste better with a little something crunchy.

For this picture, we used a small pretzel, but you could easily switch it up, and add your favorite dipping cracker, or bread to it.

I have a lot of recommendations, but here are a few of my favorite things to dip into this simple and delicious 4 Ingredient Cheeseball:

-Wheat Thins
-Pigs In a Blanket Crackers
-Saltines
-Pita Bread
-Ritz Crackers
-Fresh Baked Bread
-Club Crackers
-Bruschetta
-French Bread Slices
