I understand if you’ve only rolled up savory cheeseballs up until now, but whipping up a dessert cheeseball is the snack you need for upcoming festive gatherings. I’ll tell you right now, there’s a cannoli cheeseball recipe at the end of this, and it is resplendent. Part of the beauty of cheeseballs is the versatility and ease of making them.

They make a great party snack contribution with usually five to seven ingredients that you can bend to fit your budget. Use simple ingredients, or cheaper brands to make it more affordable, or go wild with artisanal chocolate and gold leaf if you want to. Once you’ve decided on your cheeseball recipe, mix up the ingredients. I usually start with room temperature ingredients because they incorporate easier, but most recipes don’t specify, so it’s really up to how much elbow grease you want to put in. The benefit of working with cold ingredients is that the fats stay firm, so you can usually shape it into a ball right away and roll it in the outer garnish posthaste. Mix drained ricotta, cream cheese, and sugar together until smooth. Stir in the melted butter quickly, so it doesn’t get chunky.
