Try this. Its dessert. It’s a cheeseball. It’s fantastic. This is the type of thing you bring to a friends house for a gathering or for Easter Brunch or make ahead for 1:30am trips to the fridge just for a quick sweet bite (or 30) that you will absolutely not regret.
It’s like a cheesecake wrapped in a hug of chocolate chips and sliced toasted almonds.
I served it with graham crackers. It’s perfect in all it’s buttery cream cheesy goodness. It would be fantastic with fresh strawberries too. The recipe can be viewed here or below:
