Ingredients

10 servings

•

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
•

1.5 cups shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
•

1 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese
•

2 tablespoons mayonnaise
•

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

•

1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)
•

1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
•

0.25 teaspoon onion powder
•

0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
•

1 cup spicy cheese-flavored cornmeal snack (such as Cheetos® Flamin' Hot)

Instructions

Beat cream cheese, 1 cup Cheddar cheese, pepper Jack, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, hot sauce, parsley, onion powder, and garlic powder with an electric mixer on low speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Beat in remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar until just combined, about 15 seconds.
Place a large piece of plastic wrap on a clean work surface. Place cheese mixture in the center of the plastic wrap. Pull up edges of the plastic wrap to shape the mixture into a ball. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
Crush snack chips and place in a shallow dish. Unwrap the cheese ball and roll in crushed chips, pressing gently to coat. Serve immediately.
