Ingredients
For the Cheese Ball
- 1 pound cream cheese softened
- ½ cup butter 1 stick
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
For decorating
- ¼ cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Blend together the cream cheese and butter until well combined.
- Add the powdered sugar, cocoa, and vanilla and mix well, then fold in 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips.
- Lay out some plastic wrap and dump the mixture on the wrap.
- Enclose in the wrap, and begin to shape into a football shape.
- Chill for an hour.
- Remove the cheese ball from the refrigerator and unwrap.
- Begin with the white chocolate chips and arrange them like laces on a football.
- Scoop chocolate chips onto the rest of the ball and cover the outside of the ball.
- Set on a serving platter and add cookies, pretzels and other dippers.
Notes
- Soften the butter and cream cheese - but don't melt. If you push your thumb into it, it should leave a dent - but not fall apart.
- If the ball is too soft to shape when you first make it, wrap it and freeze for 30 minutes. Shape gently then set in the refrigerator until ready to decorate.
- Have a platter ready!
- Serve chocolate chip cheese ball with nilla wafers, graham crackers, pretzels, and fruit if you're feeling healthy.
