How to Make Dessert Cheese Ball
- In a mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 4 tablespoons of softened butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add 1/2 cup of powdered sugar and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, beating until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Gently form the chilled cheese mixture into a ball. Use plastic wrap or clean hands.
- Optional: Just before serving, roll the cheese ball in 1/4 cup of additional chocolate chips or your favorite chopped nuts.
- Serve immediately with an assortment of graham crackers (we recommend both regular and chocolate for an elegant touch!).
