Wife made it for a trivia night we went to last Saturday. So here it is:
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
- Grated chocolate or chocolate dust outside optional
- In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese and butter until smooth. Mix in confectioners' sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover, and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
- Shape chilled cream cheese mixture into a ball or log. Wrap with plastic, and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
- Roll the cheese ball in finely chopped pecans or grated chocolate or chocolate dust before serving.
