Steps to Prepare Flowering Bartlett Pear Tree

Christmas Tree Cheese Ball

Would fertilizing and pruning help to produce fruit from this tree?

Recipe Summary Christmas Tree Cheese Ball

My family's cheese ball recipe, shaped like a tree for the holidays. Very fun! Serve on a platter surrounded by crackers.

Ingredients | Flowering Bartlett Pear Tree

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

¼ cup finely diced onion

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 red bell pepper

1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped

¼ cup chopped pecans, or as needed

Directions

Mix cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, onion, and Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl with an electric mixer until completely blended. Turn cheese mixture onto a sheet of waxed paper and form it into the shape of a Christmas tree. Refrigerate cheese 'tree' until firm, at least 1 hour.

Cut bell pepper into thin strips and 1 star shape.

Press parsley into cheese tree to cover. Press bell pepper strips in a row to form a 'garland'. Make another 'garland' using chopped pecans. Place bell pepper star at the top of the 'tree'. Carefully transfer 'tree' to a serving platter.
