A Great Pumpkin Cheese Ball

Add the stem from a real pumpkin in and your guests will do a double take. A broccoli stem is another ...edible... option.
How to Make It
Blend together the cheeses until smooth. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, celery salt and onion salt, adding more to taste, if desired. Shape into a ball and set on a serving plate; cover and chill 2 to 3 hours or until firm.
Score cheese ball with vertical lines, if desired, to resemble a pumpkin. Toss walnuts with paprika; press into surface of cheese ball. Break a pretzel rod in half and insert in top for stem, if desired. Arrange crackers around cheese ball.

I would recommend using grated sharp cheddar cheese rather than the cold pack. All the other ingredients will return to their naturally firm state, but cold pack spread is soft in its natural state.

It really wasn't firm enough to make into a ball, even after refrigorating overnight.
Any ideas to make it firmer? The flavor is good, but I am concerned about how to firm it up with out changing the flavor profile!
