Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + chilling
YIELD: 2 cups
Your guests are in for a sweet surprise when they try this chocolate chip cheese ball—it tastes just like cookie dough! Rolled in chopped pecans, this chip-studded spread is wonderful on regular or chocolate graham crackers. I especially like it because it can be assembled in a wink. —Kelly Glascock, Syracuse, Missouri
