Football Cheese Ball

My family and I loved this football cheese ball. My son is a big fan of cheese balls, and I think this just might be his new favorite (bacon, cheese, and jalapeños are three of his favorite foods). I'd never thought of using the stand mixer with the paddle attachment to mix a cheese ball, but this method worked perfectly. Making the cheese ball into a football was a nice idea and would be great for a tailgating or Super Bowl party. We're not much for watching football here, but we had no problem eating a football that was this good. We'd disagree with this cheese ball serving 20, though. At least in this house.
