Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball

Yes!! Now people who are both chocolate and cheese fans can eat it all together, and it actually tastes….WONDERFUL! You can make it a dessert or a side dish, whatever fits your fancy. 🙂 I am a firm believer that chocolate tastes good in just about everything and anything…don’t you agree?

Step 1

Check you fridge/pantry for the avalibility of these listed items and then gather together all the ingredients for this recipe, Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball:

•1 8-oz. pkg., softened
•½ cup butter, softened
•¼ tsp. vanilla
•¾ cup confectioner’s sugar
•2 T. brown sugar
•¾ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
•¾ cup finely chopped pecans

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until they are nice and fluffy. Then preceed to Step 3.

Step 3

Gradually add the sugars to the mixture; beat them until just combined – don’t over-do. Then stir in the chocolate chips. This is your secret ingredient!

Step 4

Cover your bowl and refrigerate for around 2 hours. Place mixture on a piece of plastic wrap then shape it into a ball. Refrigerate for at least one hour. It might be best to just go ahead and whip up and bake something else in the mean time!

Step 5

Just before serving, roll the whole ball in pecans (finely crushed pecans are the best to use for this recipe) until coated as much as possible. It is best to serve this cheese/chocolate ball with graham crackers or cracker/chip of your choice (you can use about anything).

Enjoy your Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball!
