Chocolate Chip Cheeseball

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 C butter, softened (no margarine)
1/4 tsp vanilla
3/4 C powdered sugar
2 T brown sugar
3/4 C mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 C finely chopped pecans (I personally don't use these)
Some form of graham cracker, like Teddy Grahams or graham cracker sticks.

Beat cream cheese, butter, vanilla until fluffy. Add sugars and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and cool in fridge for 2 hours. Then place on a piece of plastic wrap and shape into a ball. You can then unwrap and cover with pecans, if you choose. Store in fridge, covered with plastic wrap.

I serve mine on a platter surrounded by variations of Teddy Grahams: chocolate, regular, and chocolate chip.

I make cheese balls every year that the adults enjoy for the holidays, but I just might do this for the kids this year!
