- Throw the first 6 ingredients into a mixer. If you're using a KitchenAid use the paddle attachment.
- Wrap the cheese in plastic and put it into the fridge for an hour. It needs to harden up.
- Crush the Doritos into little bits. You are going to cover the cheeseball after it comes out of the fridge with the crushed Doritos which will make it look like a pumpkin.
- Cut off the top of the bell pepper and put it on top of the pumpkin cheese ball.
- Grab your favorite crackers, tortilla chips and nuts and plate the cheeseball .
