Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball

1 pkg. 8oz. cream cheese
1/2 cup butter
1/4 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbs. brown sugar
3/4 cup confectioners sugar
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Chocolate Graham crackers

Beat softened cream cheese, butter, & vanilla until creamy. Slowly add sugars until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Place mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap and form into a ball. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Roll ball in left over mini choc chips. Serve with chocolate graham crackers.

I didn’t have time to find mine, but I looked it up online. This is as close to mine as I can get. Original recipe calls for rolling the ball in chopped nuts, but we like the mini choc chips better.

Also, instead of rolling, I use a deep, small mixing bowl. Put some choc chips in bottom and spoon mixture on top. The chips will spread out/rise with the weight of cream cheese mixture. Keep adding chips around the side and mixture in the middle. When all the mixture is in the small bowl, cover with remaining chips. Refrigerate, and when solid enough, turn out onto plate. Press any loose chips back into mixture and shape with hands. That way, you don’t lose all your mixture sticking to your hands. :) Enjoy!
