Perfectly chilled and shaped into a ball, this crowd-pleasing centerpiece pairs beautifully with cookies, crackers, or pretzels for an entertaining snack that's ready in just 15 minutes of prep time. Whether you're hosting a gathering or want a fun twist on a classic sweet dip, this no-fuss dessert is guaranteed to steal the spotlight!
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and unsalted butter using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add powdered sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated and smooth.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips using a rubber spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Line a small bowl with plastic wrap, allowing excess to hang over the edges. Scoop the cream cheese mixture into the lined bowl and press gently to form a ball-like shape.
Cover the top of the mixture with the overhanging plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to handle.
Once chilled, remove the dessert ball from the plastic wrap and roll it in crushed graham crackers or finely chopped nuts, if desired, to coat the outside.
Transfer the dessert ball to a serving plate and surround it with an assortment of cookies, crackers, or pretzels for dipping.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
