Classic Cheese Ball

A retro party favorite that never goes out of style: a creamy blend of cream cheese, sour cream and sharp shredded cheddar seasoned with garlic and onion powder, chilled until firm, shaped into a ball and rolled in chopped toasted pecans. Serve with crackers, pretzels and crisp vegetables.
