Cheese Roll

by: Sue

For many Christmases, we had this cheese roll to snack on while we waited for Mema’s rolls to rise. There is nothing like the smell of yeast rolls and turkey in the oven to whet your appetite for this garlicky cheese roll.

1 pound grated longhorn cheese (or sharp cheddar)
1 small package cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup pecans, toasted
1 small onion, grated
1 large or 2 small cloves garlic, chopped (you can substitute garlic powder if desired, to your own taste)
salt and pepper

Put everything except pecans through grinder or food processor, add pecans. Form into rolls the circumfurence of a Ritz cracker , wrap with wax paper and aluminum foil and refrigerate. Chill overnight. Slice and serve with Ritz crackers.

Variation: roll cheese roll in chili powder
