Time 4h

Yield 1 cheese ball, 12-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup icing sugar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup miniature chocolate chip
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans or 3/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
graham cracker (for spreading)

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until fluffy.
  • Gradually add the icing sugar, then the brown sugar, then vanilla; beat just until combined.
  • Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Place cream cheese mixture on a large piece of plastic wrap and shape into a ball; it helps to put your hands under the plastic wrap to help you form it without getting your hands sticky.
  • Place nuts in flat bowl and roll ball in pecans, trying to coat evenly.
  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Serve with graham crackers.
