Funny you should ask. This is based on a "cheese ball" recipe that my mom
made for as long as I can remember. I have no idea where she got the
recipe.
As a cheese ball she also added coarsely chopped pecans, parsley flakes,
and dehydrated onion flakes. The ball of cheese was rolled in a mixture of
chopped pecans and parsley flakes.
I sometimes make the cheeseball, but more often than not I make it as I
originally posted for you and pack it into a crock.

It, of course, would be a different taste, but I think it would be
delicioius.

Have your druthers and substitute the horseradish for the tobasco. I think
it would be great!
This is really a very flexible recipe. One note, though, as a potted
cheese... If the mixture is a little too firm, add a tablespoon or two of
cream and mix well.
If you make it, let me know how you like the result.
Best regards...
