I have a wonderful cheese ball recipe that you can add dried beef to, and roll in the beef and almond slivers.
3 large packages of cream cheese, 1/4 lb blue cheese and 1 jar of Kraft Old English cheese spread, grate 1 small onion and 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce. I mix the above in a food processor and add the dried beef chips. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight then roll in dried beef and/or almond slivers.
