Answer 2

This one is a little different. If you really would rather have a ball, I would suggest not dividing (as in the instructions), and then choose either the pepper or the parsley to roll it in...

"Pepper and Parsley Logs" - 2 logs

1 (1 oz.) packet Hidden Valley Original Ranch Dressing Mix
8 oz. cream cheese; softened
2 tsp. EACH cracked pepper and chopped fresh parsley

Combine dressing mix and cream cheese. Divide in half; chill until firm. Roll into two 1 1/2" logs, coating one with pepper and the other one with parsley. Wrap in plastic wrap; chill.
