I don't know what you mean by chees balls but try this :

fresh goat chees with salt and pepper and if you feel like it add garlic and stuff like that. Make sure it doesn't get too wet. Make balls the size of a marble and rol them through roasted sesame seeds. I think its yummy !
 
Cheese Ball

Below is a good cheese ball recipe that I found on www.spiceplace.com website. It has a unique taste because of the types of cheeses used. They have alot of good recipes, you should check it out sometime.

Cheese Ball

12 oz cream cheese
1/2 glass Kraft Old English cheese
1/4 lb Roquefort cheese
2 tbsps onion, minced
1/8 tsp granulated garlic
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
dash paprika
1/4 cup pecans, finely chopped
Remove cheese from refrigerator about 30 mins before using.
Mix all ingredients well.
Chill and roll into a ball.
Then roll cheese ball in finely chopped pecans
Wrap in wax paper and refrigerate until ready to serve.
 
Here's a simple one to remember...

Block of cream cheese (what's that....1 cup?)
1 cup grated cheese...whatever you fancy
diced green and red pepper...not too many...more for looks
you can add green onion as well
dash of wortchestershire sauce (if you don't have any, you dont need it)

Roll into balls....size of a tennis ball will do....then roll in crushed walnuts

Serve with a variety of crackers.


Sorry I don't have exact measurements anymore I just do it off the top of my head.

Hope you enjoy...they are FABULOUS!
 
This is not a cheese ball, but I found this online and it sounds good:

Bacon cheese puffs:

1 pound sliced bacon
2 1/2 Cups shredded cheddar
2 Tbsp. prepared mustard
1 Cup mayo
1 pound sliced pumpernickel party bread

Fry bacon, drain, crumble
Preheat broiler
In medium bowl combine bacon, cheese, mustard, mayo. Stir. Spoon mixture on to bread and broil for 5 minutes or until bubbly.

There are many cheese ball recipes online. I found one similar to the one that Ann posted in this thread, which sounds good.
