Turtle Cheeseball
What you need:
- 1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 Tbsp. caramel sauce
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
- 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips, divided
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup caramel bits (or chopped caramel candies)
- Graham crackers, apples, vanilla wafers, etc. for dipping
Directions:
- In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese and butter until smooth.
- Add caramel sauce and powdered sugar and beat until combined.
- Add 1/2 cup chocolate chips and then place "dough" onto a large piece of plastic wrap.
- Cover the "dough" completely and then shape into a ball.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup chocolate chips, pecans, and caramel bits.
- Remove cheeseball from the refrigerator and press pecan mixture onto the ball gently.
- Wrap in plastic wrap once again and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Serve with your choice of dipper. I think the apples were my favorite but grahams are good too!
