Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Dessert Ball - Unique! image

This is not your typical cheese ball -- it is a dessert cheese ball that is always a hit at parties. It tastes a lot like chocolate chip cookie dough. I serve it as an appetizer as well. Graham cracker sticks work really well with this recipe -- I use both regular and chocolate graham crackers. Prep time does not include 3 hours to chill. Enjoy! Viclynn

1/2 c butter, softened
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 c confectioners' sugar
2 Tbsp brown sugar
3/4 c miniature semisweet chocolate chips

  • Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the mixture, making it lighter and airier.
  • Add the chocolate, nuts, and other ingredients once the cream cheese and butter mixture is light and fluffy. Mix until just combined.
  • Chill the cheese ball for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help it to firm up and hold its shape.
  • Serve the cheese ball with crackers, fruit, or vegetables. You can also drizzle it with chocolate syrup or melted chocolate.
