Braunschweiger Ball
Ingredients:
- 8 Ounces of Braunschweiger
- 2 Tablespoons Chili Sauce
- 4 Dashes of Tabasco Sauce
- 2 Tablespoons of Mayonnaise
- 8 Ounces of Cream Cheese
- 1/2 Cup of Finely Minced Onions
- 1 Medium Jar of Pimento Stuffed Olives
Tip:
- If you don’t have time to refrigerate it for an hour, put it in the freezer for 20 minutes.
Instructions:
- Bring the braunschweiger and the cream cheese to room temperature.
- Divide the cream cheese into 3 ounces and 5 ounces. Set the 5 ounce portion aside. Mix all of the ingredients EXCEPT for the 5 ounces of cream cheese together until mixed thoroughly.
- Form the mixture into a ball. Refrigerate the ball for one hour. While the mixture is firming up in the refrigerator, slice olives into thin slices.
- Put the cream cheese into the microwave for 10 seconds on high. Take the ball out and ‘frost’ it with the cream cheese. Cover with slices of olive. Cover and seal, place in the refrigerator and take it out when you are ready to serve. Serve with crackers.
