Sausage Cheese Balls Tips <\/h2>

Can you make sausage cheese balls ahead of time? <\/h3>Yes! After forming the sausage cheese balls, place in a single layer, uncooked, on a sheet pan in the freezer. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer-safe container or bag in the freezer. When you are ready to bake them, take out as many as you need and bake from frozen until heated through, allowing for a little extra time. Here's our ultimate guide for freezing all kinds of foods<\/a>.

What else can you put in sausage cheese balls? <\/h3>Try swapping out the cheddar cheese with another favorite cheese such as mozzarella, Swiss, Monterey Jack, or even pepper jack for a bit of kick. You can also add a little heat with a pinch of cayenne pepper, or smokiness with some smoked paprika. \r\n

What other sauces can you serve with sausage cheese balls? <\/h3>In addition to barbecue sauce<\/a>, you can serve these sausage cheese balls with a salsa-ranch dipping sauce<\/a>, dijon dip<\/a>... even fry sauce<\/a>!

Why are my sausage balls tough?<\/h3>The most common cause of tough or dense sausage balls is overmixing. The more you stir and form the mixture, the denser it will be. Try to form them quickly and lightly, using just enough pressure to get them to hold together.

What else can you put in sausage balls?<\/h3>Try swapping out the cheddar cheese with another cheese such as mozzarella, Swiss, Monterey Jack, or even pepper jack for a bit of kick. You can also add a little heat with a pinch of cayenne pepper, or smokiness with some smoked paprika.
