Method
- In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and fully combined.
- Using a spatula, fold in the chopped green onions until just distributed.
- Transfer the mixture to a large piece of plastic wrap. Form it into a ball and wrap it tightly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to firm up.
- Just before serving, unwrap the cheese ball and roll it in the toasted chopped pecans until evenly coated. Serve with crackers, pretzels, or veggies.

Notes
Soften Cream Cheese: Make sure your cream cheese is fully at room temperature to avoid lumps.
Grate Your Own Cheese: For the best texture, grate a block of sharp cheddar yourself.
Make-Ahead: The cheese ball can be prepared up to 3 days in advance without the pecan coating. Keep it wrapped in the fridge and roll in nuts just before serving.
