Goat Cheese Balls (Sur Restaurant Recipe)

Anyone that knows me, knows that I'm a Bravoholic. I love all things Bravo, especially when it involves LVP (Lisa Vanderpump). My bestie and I have been to Sur several times in WEHO and their Goat Cheese Balls are uh-maze-ing. So when they posted the recipe to their Insta Story of COURSE I saved it and made the yummy balls. The recipe is actually pretty simple and you get yummy balls as the end result.. HAHA!
