I have a friend who swears that she is lost in the kitchen. But she sure makes a good Chocolate Chip Cheeseball. This is her go to party dish, and with good reason. I got this recipe from her several years ago and receive praises for it each time I make it.
It’s quick, simple and sure to be a crowd pleaser. This cheeseball can be used as an appetizer or a dessert….or both!
