Burning Bush Cheese Balls

I have NO clue why these are named burning bush cheese balls. A lady at our church makes them for my hubby every Christmas. I had to make a bunch of appetizers and decided that I needed to make more of these. They were a huge hit. I made a few changes to the original recipe.

Burning Bush mini cheese balls


Ingredients


1- 8oz pkg cream cheese
1 green onion, chopped fine
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 pkg. Buddig dried beef, finely chopped

Directions

Mix all ingredients together EXCEPT dried beef. Form into quarter, bite-sized balls and roll into the dried beef. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Crackers are optional. You can also form this into one large ball and roll into beef.  Next time I"m going to roll these in crispy bacon bits.

    My family has made this since the 70s. The recipe we have includes skewering the balls with a toothpick and pushing the toothpick into a grapefruit. Covering the grapefruit to form the burning bush. Then you pull the toothpick with cheese/beef ball and eat it from the end of the tooth pick that was in the grapefruit. Get the essence of grapefruit too. We love it.
