Smoked Almond Cheese Truffles

 

8 ounces (227 g) cream cheese, softened

1 C. (90 g) shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1/4 tsp. onion powder

Chopped smoked almonds, to taste

 

In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Use a #100 scoop to scoop the cream cheese mixture into balls. You can leave them domed with a flat side like the shape of the scoop, or you can roll them into balls with your hands. Roll the cheese balls in the chopped smoked almonds to coat.
