In a big bowl, mix together the soft cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon pieces, chives, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Stir everything together until all ingredients are mixed well and the mixture is smooth.
Shape the cheese mixture into small, bite-sized balls using your hands.
Cover each ball with the chopped pecans by rolling them in the nuts until they are evenly coated.
Put the cheese balls covered in coating on a plate or tray.
Put the cheese balls in the fridge for at least an hour before serving so they can become firm.
Different Types and Advice
There are many ways to personalize these small cheese balls! To give it some extra flavor, you can include chopped jalapeños or sprinkle some cayenne pepper. If you don’t like pecans, you can use crushed walnuts or sunflower seeds instead. You can also try using different herbs, like replacing chives with scallions or adding some dill for a natural flavor. If you want more flavor, adding a bit of hot sauce to the cheese mix can spice things up. Finally, feel free to prepare them in advance—they keep well in the fridge for a few days.
