Dear Bill and Elaine, I am so glad that you had a good time. Hopefully you will get lots of use out of that table. Don't let that empty nest get you down!! Elaine her is the recipe for chocolate chip cheeseball.

1 package(8 ozs)cream cheese
1/2 cup butter(no substitutes), softened
1/4 t vanilla extract
3/4 c confectioners' sugar
2 T brown sugar
3/4 c mini chocolate chips
3/4 c finely chopped pecans
graham cracker sticks

In mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until fluffy. Gradually add sugars; beat just until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Place cream cheese mixture on a large piece of plastic wrap; shape into a ball. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Just before serving, roll cheese ball in pecans. Serve with graham cracker sticks.

Bill, was great to meet you and the family...Looking forward to the next time we see all of you. Hope your daughter enjoyed herself and maybe she will come back as well..Ralph
