Reviews for Great Balls Of Cheese

[christinasbookshelf · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

5 stars for the fun shapes and decorations that she has come up with.3 stars for the actual recipes for the cheese mixtures, which are uninspiring and underseasoned. I think that I will use the Cook's Country Bacon-Ranch Cheese Ball recipe which is my go-to when making any of the savory cheese ball shapes in this book.
