Add the cream cheese to a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder and mix until fully combined.

Using a spoon, scoop out pieces of the mixture, about one tablespoon in size, roll into balls, then transfer to a large plate.

Add the chopped Blue Diamond Smokehouse Almonds to a bowl. Toss each cheese ball into the chopped almonds, making sure to gently press the almonds into them so they will stick well.

Transfer the cheese balls back to a plate, cover, and refrigerate for at least 20-30 minutes or until firm.

If using the pretzel sticks, insert one into each cheese ball just before serving.

Serve with crackers and enjoy!
