I am going to a JLD gathering on Friday evening and am to bring an appetizer. However, seeing as everyone else is also bringing an appetizer it could be fun to mix it up and bring a backwards appetizer...like a chocolate chip ball!
photo courtesy of Google Images1 pkg. (8oz.) Cream Cheese, softened
1/2 cup Butter, softened
1/4 tsp. Vanilla
2 Tbs. Brown Sugar
3/4 cup Confectioners Sugar
3/4 cup Mini Chocolate Chips
Chocolate or Chocolate Chip Graham Crackers
Combine cream cheese, butter, & vanilla until creamy. Add in sugars and mix until blended. Finally, stir in the best part, your chocolate chips! I would suggest placing this in the fridge for a bit before you form a ball (it was easier for me to work with). You can serve with graham crackers sticks, Teddy Grahams or Annie's Bunnies. It is just like chips and dip, but for the sweet tooth! Yum, yum, yum!

I see this cheese ball in my future. It will definitely be making an appearance this holiday season! Thank you for sharing....yuuum!!
Yum!
Oh my gosh Hopsy! This sounds fabulous! Will def have to try it. The JL'ers will love it!! xoxoxo
Great idea! Chocolate-dipped strawberries also work for this.
Mmm sounds yummy! I'm definitely going to have to try that for one of the many holiday parties I'll be attending.
Thanks for the recipe!
This looks/sounds so yummy! I will definitely be trying it during the holidays! XOXO
That is such a unique and great idea! Plus it seems like you would be able to add some color or different "mix-ins" depending on the holiday or time of year.
Love the backwards appetizer. I'm definitely going to try this one the next time I have to bring an appetizer somewhere!
Yum! There's a similar recipe in my Junior League of Tallahassee cookbook, but I haven't tried it yet! I definitely need to :)
(Aren't Annie's bunnies the best? Love them!)
I have made this several times and it is yummy! I've also had a variation of it made the same way but then rolled in finely chopped pecans... Have fun at your get-together!
that looks FANTASTIC!!
What a fun idea! I think I will have to file it away.
What a great idea! Thanks for a great spin. Will try that for the bunko group next time we meet!!!
Bring this...I think it would be a HIT!! :)

Looks soooo yummy. I'm going to the JLD informational meeting tonight!
Oh wow! That looks delicious! What a great idea!
Great idea!
Sounds yum yum, Hopsy!
I was going to make this last week for a work potluck and went with a cheese one shaped like a pumpkin instead. I'm glad to hear it's good and I'll have to make it the next time!
Definitely going to have to make this for a holiday gathering...looks delish!
That looks just too yummy! I might have to make this for a JLCD gathering later this month too.
What a good idea! I have never seen this before, but it looks delicious!

Another fantastic recipe, thank you for sharing! ;)
Oh Hopsy, this sounds delish!!! I usually think of apps as salty, but this sweet spin is just lovely. Xoxo-BLC
Oh my gosh! This sounds sinful!!
Hopsy!!!!!! Did you read my blog?! I'm trying to eat healthy and this just makes me want bad food. Looks sooooo yummy!
A very similar dessert I always make (that comes in a kit) is the Turtle Cheesecake Cheeseball... by Resident Chef. It is divine and all you have to do is mix a bar of cream cheese with it! Goes great with animal/graham crackers!!!

Those are the best ever! We have a local church here in Alabama that sells various kinds of cheese balls at Christmas. This is one of their best sellers! Yummy!
I LOVE seeing this recipe used at a JL function! When I was Admissions Chair for the JLColumbia, I had this exact app for the Sponsor Orientation. I had forgotten all about it... thanks for whetting my appetite for it again!
