Party Cheese Balls

I saw this recipe in the latest Food Network Magazine.  These might be fun for New Years with some different flavored crackers.  They will look pretty on the plate as well.

Mix 8oz. softened cream cheese with 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tsp.grated lemon zest, and 1 C. shredded firm cheese like cheddar, parmesan, pepper jack, or gouda.  Season with salt and pepper.  With moistened hands, form into 1 inch balls; chill 4 hours, then roll in toppings.  Suggested toppings are  chopped pistachios, chives, tarragon, hulled pumpkin seeds, bacon with paprika, almonds, and black and white sesame seeds.
