Prep Time: 15 mins

Total Time: 3 hours 15 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2

    (8-oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened

  • 4 tbsp.

    (1/2 stick) butter, softened

  • 1/2 c.

    (60 g.) confectioners' sugar

  • 1/4 c.

    (55 g.) packed brown sugar

  • 1/2 tsp.

    pure vanilla extract

  • 1 c.

    mini chocolate chips

  • 3/4 c.

    assorted rainbow and silver sprinkles

  • Nilla wafers and pretzels, for serving

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, using a handheld mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in confectioners' sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla, then fold in chips.

  2. Place 2 overlapping sheets of plastic wrap on a work surface and scrape cream cheese mixture on top. Using your hands, form mixture into a ball. Place in a small bowl, then tightly cover with plastic wrap. Freeze until firm, about 3 hours. (Once it’s semi-firm, after about 2 hours, you’ll be able to better shape it into a ball.)

  3. In a small bowl, mix rainbow and silver sprinkles.

  4. When ready to serve, transfer ball to a platter. Cover with sprinkles. (If your ball is firm enough to roll, try that.)

  5. Serve with Nilla wafers and pretzels alongside.
