Aunt Saunny
1 - 8 oz. package of cream cheese
1/2 cup of apple cider or apple juice
2 cups of shredded Swiss cheese
2 cups of shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup of butter or margarine, melted
Chopped walnuts, pecans or paprika
Beat cream cheese until smooth in a large bowl. Slowly beat
in cider or apple juice, Swiss cheese, Cheddar cheese and
melted butter or margarine; continue beating until fluffy.
Pack into a buttered 3-cup bowl, mounding top. Chill overnight until very firm. Several hours before serving, loosen cheese around edge with a knife; invert onto a cutting board or plate. You can shape cheese ball at this point. You can form an apple and dust with paprika and press a stem from a fresh apple in or you can dust the cheese ball with chopped walnuts or pecans. For best flavor, let stand at room temperature at least 30
minutes before serving.
