Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball

Created by Lynn (diner524) on November 20, 2015

2 tablespoons brown sugar
3/4 cup miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 1/2 ounces chopped pecans (3/4 cup finely chopped pecans, could use a different nut, chocolate chips or even toffee bits)
Graham crackers, pretzels (for that salty/sweet combo), apples, gingersnaps (or whatever you want for dipping)

Step 1: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until fluffy. Gradually add sugars; beat just until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Step 2: Place cream cheese mixture on a large piece of plastic wrap; shape into a ball. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Step 3: Just before serving, roll cheese ball in pecans. Serve with graham crackers or whatever you want for dipping. Yield: 1 cheese ball (about 2 cups).
