Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 12

Ingredients

1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, at room temperature

One 4 1/2-ounce can deviled ham
1/2 cup chopped pitted green olives
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, blend together the Cheddar and cream cheeses. Beat in the deviled ham, then stir in the olives.

    Step 2

    Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours so it’s firm enough to slice.

    Step 3

    Shape the cheese mixture into two 8-inch logs. Roll the cheese logs in chopped nuts. Serve with crackers.
