Reminiscent of buttermilk ranch dressing, with a little bacon tossed in. ;)
Combine the cream cheese, cup of the cheddar cheese, buttermilk, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, dill, garlic powder, and parsley until smooth.
Add the bacon and onions.
Adjust seasoning to taste.
In a separate bowl, combine the crispy pecans and remaining cup of cheddar cheese.
Spread on a piece of waxed paper.
Mound the cheese mixture into a log shape on top of the nuts and parsley.
Carefully roll to cover in the nut mixture.
Cover and refrigerate for about 24 hours to allow the flavors to marry.
