For the Creamy Base

  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Enhances overall depth; fresh minced garlic can intensify the flavor.
For the Flavor Boost

  • 2 tbsp Fresh Dill Chopped; substitute with 1 tablespoon of dried dill if unavailable.

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Fry the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate to cool before dicing.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, diced pickles, shredded cheddar, pickle juice, chopped dill, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined and creamy.
  3. Dice the cooled bacon and chop the green onions in a separate bowl.
  4. Using your hands, take about a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture and roll it into a ball. Aim for about 12 balls in total.
  5. Roll each ball in the diced bacon and chopped green onion mixture, ensuring they’re evenly coated.
