Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cut the top 1/4 inch off the garlic, place garlic on a piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle lightly with salt, wrap in aluminum foil and cook for 40 - 45 minutes or until cloves are browned and soft. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before using a fork to remove each clove.

While garlic is cooking, cook bacon over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate. Once cool, chop into bits.

In a bowl combine garlic, cream cheese and goat cheese. Roll into a ball.

Mix bacon bits and chives together in a pie dish. Roll cheese ball into bacon to coat completely.

Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for 15 minutes or just until firm. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Remove from refrigerator 20 minutes prior to serving. Serve with crackers.
