Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, mayo, cheddar cheese, jalapeño, crumbled bacon, diced red onion, and a dash of black pepper and cayenne. Use a hand mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes until fluffy.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion the mixture into balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter. Roll in your hands to shape, then coat with crumbled bacon.
- Cover the tray with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Arrange the cheese balls on a serving platter and serve with your favorite dips like baguette slices or fresh veggies.

Notes
Increase mayo for creaminess. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Can be prepared 1-2 days in advance.
