These Cranberry Pecan Mini Cheese Balls are the perfect appetizer!

I love taking recipes and making them into individual servings for parties and get-togethers. These Cranberry Pecan Mini Cheese Balls are made with only four ingredients, friends. Yeah, I said four. And there’s no chopping or baking involved. These are super easy to make and to eat. I used goat cheese (which I love) mixed with softened cream cheese, pecan chips, and dried cranberries. Hello, easy!

Ingredients needed:

  • Cream Cheese
  • Goat Cheese
  • Pecan Chips
  • Dried Cranberries

These are a perfect appetizer because your guest can easily grab one as they mingle with friends. And how cute are these mini serving forks? Like I always say, presentation is everything.

Did you know you can buy pecan chips?! Meaning the pecans are already chopped and ready to go. Here is a link in case you need a visual.

So make these mini cheese balls instead of your traditional cheese ball and serve at Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Years Eve party.

Staying home is more important now than ever befor Staying home is more important now than ever before. Being sick or having a sick child looks a little different these days. The last place anyone wants to be is at a doctor's office sitting in a waiting room with other ill people. Now because of @ssm_health virtual visits, you can see a virtual doctor from the safety and comfort of your home by using your mobile device or computer. No insurance needed and the cost is only $25. It's so convenient. I have a full blog post sharing how I use it. See the direct link in my bio for more information.
