Chocolate Cheese Ball

Ready for a recipe that will break all New Year's weight loss resolutions?  I made this for small group last night and it turned out pretty yummy and it seriously took less than 10 minutes to make.

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup better, softened

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar

2 tablespoons brown sugar

3/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

3/4 cup finely chopped pecans

Graham crackers

• Beat the cream cheese & butter until fluffy.  Mix vanilla extract and sugars into the cream cheese and butter mixture. Add chocolate chips.
• Refrigerate 2 hours. 
• Place cream cheese mixture onto plastic wrap and shape into a ball. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Cover the ball with the chopped pecans. 
• Serve with graham crackers. I used cinnamon graham crackers because they were 1/2 the price of the chocolate ones & they worked just fine too!
