Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 3 tbsp everything bagel seasoning, divided

Method
 

  1. Beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the cheddar and 2 tbsp seasoning, then mix until combined.
  2. Scrape onto plastic wrap, then shape into a 4-inch ball. Chill for 10 minutes if it feels too soft.
  3. Spread the remaining 1 tbsp seasoning on a plate, then roll the ball until evenly coated. Transfer to a serving board with crackers.

Notes

Chill the shaped ball for at least 30 minutes before serving if you have the time, it firms up and takes the coating better. You can also make it a day ahead; just wait to roll it in the seasoning until right before you serve.
