This recipe was originally included on the cracker barrel cheese package which was bell shaped. I have substituted 3/4 to 1 pound grated sharp cheddar cheese for cracker barrel cheese listed above. I melted the sharp cheddar cheese before adding into the cream cheese.

Instead of using:

2 tsp. chopped onion
2 tsp. chopped green pepper
2 tsp. chopped pimento
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
