Excellent recipe! Nice change of pace. It's rich but you don't need big servings, just a little bit satisfies that sweet craving. I have rolled mine in Skor bits and nuts just for something different and it was fantastic!

I doubled everything it made it for a party...it was a massive hit. I served it with plain & chocolate graham crackers. The only thing I will change next time is to use about 1/3 less chocolate chips.

I'm giving this recipe 5 stars for flavor. I must have done something wrong, but I could not form it into a ball. I double the recipe, so I ended up using 2 cups of powdered sugar and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. I even stuck it in the freezer overnight but this did not help. I thought it would freeze, but it stayed really soft. I didn't have any nuts, so I mixed graham cracker crumbs with sugar and melted butter and toasted them in a dry pan until lightly brown and crunchy. I tried rolling a ball but it ended up looking like a flat football. No matter what it looked like, it tasted amazing!

What an awesome cheese ball; it's much different from the usual savory ones I serve!! It was a little sweet for my taste, so next time I will cut back on the powdered sugar. I served it with graham crackers but I might try it with pretzels instead for a sweet and salty change.

Loved, Loved, Loved this! I made this for a social event since I ran out of time. Recieved rave reviews about how "decadent" it was. I omited the pecans because you never know who is alergic to nuts, and used thin almond sliver cookies, and chocolate gram crackers. Amazingly delicious for the simplicity of the recipe.

I made this for a Halloween party and it was a huge success! Several people asked for the recipe. After reading some of the other reviews, the only change I made was to use 1 cup powdered sugar versus 3/4 cup.

This was a big hit with friends! I used 1 cup confectioners' sugar. I also let the cream cheese and butter sit out at room temp. for an hour so they weren't too runny. I put the finished cheese ball mixture in the freezer for an hour (to cut down the chill time) and put it in a medium bowl. Then I flipped the mixture out and sprinkled pecans on top (will try toffee next time) and it was easier to eat than a "ball". served with chocolate grahams, a serving knife to spread and told people it was a "cheese cake cheese ball" which made people curious to try- who doesnt like cheese cake??

SO tasty! I used Nilla wafers instead of graham crackers. I've made this dish twice now and it's been a huge hit both times!

This is always a hit! I make it exactly the way the recipe is written except I do not use the pecans. At first people will look at the ball and try to figure out what it is. Once they taste it, it is usually demolished before the end of the night!

This turned out great for a quick desert. I let the cream cheese soften at room temperature, like the other reviewers. I also used real butter the stuff thats bad for you & this made it nicve and firm. Definatly going to make this again!

I have made this twice and each time it has been a big hit! I made the first one for a bridal shower and I used 2 C of the powdered sugar per some reviews. I put chopped milk chocolate inside and toasted pecans and heath toffee bits on the outside. The second one I made for a work pot-luck and I put in chopped white chocolate inside and heath toffee and shaved milk chocolate on the outside. I served both with honey pretzel sticks, cinnamon graham cracker sticks, and granny smith apples. The hardest part is getting into a ball shape. I froze mine in a metal bowl after mixing for an hour or so. Then I scooped it out of the bowl and though it was sticky, I could get it roughly into a ball. I put the toppings on a plate and immediately rolled the ball into them. Once you get the toppings to stick, then it is much easier to handle and it keeps its shape without sticking to your hands. I wrapped it plastic wrap and put in the freezer overnight. It doesn't get rock hard and softens quickly. The colder it is, the better is retains its' shape. You will be asked for the recipe, I promise. It is such a simple recipe and it really makes a statement.

This was good but I was not blown away. I wish I would have increased the sugar just a bit. I added the pecans to the cheese mixture and then rolled it in the chocolate chips so everyone would know it was a dessert. I served it with animal crackers and teddy grahams which I thought was so cute!! I might make this again, it was very rich and less than half of it was eaten.

I followed suggestions of others, also adding the extra confectioners sugar and T of brown sugar, used a combo of toasted ground pecans and heath bar. Found the plastic wrap helped in shaping the rather soft ball and getting it on the platter w/o as much mess!
