1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. butter (no substitutes), softened
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
3/4 c. confectioners sugar
2 tbsp. brown sugar
3/4 c. miniature semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 c. finely chopped pecans
graham crackers

In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until fluffy. Gradually add sugars; beat just until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Place cream cheese mixture on a large piece of plastic wrap; shape into ball. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Just before serving, roll cheese ball in pecans. Serve with graham crackers.

Yield: 1 cheese ball (about 2 cups).
