Instructions
- Combine the Cheeses: In a small bowl, combine the Philadelphia Cream Cheese and the Parmesan Cheese. ๐ง
- Add Curry Powder: Add the curry powder to the cheese mixture. Ensure you add enough to give the mixture a pale yellow ‘eggy’ color. If you prefer a spicier kick, feel free to add more curry powder to taste. ๐ถ๏ธ
- Mix Thoroughly: Beat the mixture until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth and creamy. ๐จ
- Prepare Paprika Coating: Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of mild paprika onto a plate or chopping board. This will be used to coat the cheese balls. ๐
- Form Cheese Balls: Take half of the cheese mixture and roll it into a ball. Ensure the ball is compact and holds its shape. ๐พ
- Roll in Paprika: Roll the cheese ball in the paprika on the plate until it is well covered. The paprika adds a delightful color and a hint of spice to the cheese ball. ๐ถ๏ธ
- Repeat: Wash and dry your hands, then repeat the process with the remaining cheese mixture to form another ball. ๐พ
- Chill the Cheese Balls: Place the cheese balls into a plastic container, cover with a lid, and refrigerate until cold. Chilling helps the cheese balls firm up and enhances their flavor. โ๏ธ
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the chilled cheese balls with water biscuits or your favorite cheese crackers. They make a delightful addition to any antipasto platter. ๐ฝ๏ธ
