Cook time: 1 Hr
Prep time: 15 Min
Serves: 15-20
Ingredients
- 1 pkg (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup butter, softened (do not use margarine)
- 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup miniature chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup pecans, chopped
Directions
1. In mixer, beat cream cheese and butter until creamy. Add sugars and vanilla and mix until well-combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Gather cold mixture into a ball and cover with plastic wrap. Chill another hour. Roll ball in pecans just before serving.
2. Usually, I skip the ball stage and serve this as a spread without the pecans. It's great on chocolate, cinnamon and honey graham crackers, vanilla wafers, shortbread or butter cookies.
