SALAMI CREAM CHEESE BALL

SALAMI CREAM CHEESE BALL 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened 1 bunch of green onions, chopped 1/4 lb – 1/3 lb. hard salami (I use Cervelat from the deli), cut into small pieces 3 tbsp mayo 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 1/4 tsp salt 1/8 tsp black pepper Combine all the ingredients in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and blend until evenly mixed. Pour cheese ball onto a sheet of plastic wrap and place another sheet of plastic wrap on top. Form the cheese into a ball (or whatever shape you want), and then chill for 20 to 30 minutes. Serve with butter crackers and fresh cut veggies! NOTES *to soften cream cheese quickly, unwrap the cream cheese and place on a microwave safe dish. Microwave each brick of cream cheese separately for just 20 seconds.
