Peanut Butter Cheese Ball

This is a great treat for kids and us moms as well!!!

1 package (8 ounces) Cream Cheese, at room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
3/4 cup creamy or chunky peanut butter (it says not the all-natural kind)
3 Tablespoons Packed dark brown sugar
1 1/2 cups (9 ounces) "swirl" milk chocolate and peanut butter morsels (I use the whole bag of the "swirl" milk chocolate and Carmel morsels).

Graham Cracker Sticks and/or Apple Slices

**Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, peanut butter and brown sugar in large mixer bowl until blended.
**Spoon onto a LARGE piece of plastic wrap; bring up all four corners and twist tightly to form a ball. (I then place into a freezer safe bowl with out a lid to remain in a ball shape).
**Freeze for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until firm enough to keep its shape. Place morsels in flat dish. Remove plastic wrap from ball and roll ball into morsels to cover (if necessary, press morsels into ball to completely cover).
**Place ball on serving dish; cover and freeze for 2 hours or until almost firm. (if made ahead of time and frozen overnight, thaw at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before serving.)
**Serve with graham cracker sticks and apple slices (brush lemon juice on apple slices to prevent browning) for dipping or spreading.
**makes about 20 servings.

Pickle Wheels or Pickle Dip

I just love these quick yummy appetizers. 1 jar of dill pickles 1 8oz block of cream cheese (room temp) 1 package of Black Forest Ham ( I use Great Value) Spread cream cheese over pieces of Ham.  Roll a piece of ham over a pickle spear and then slice.  Super super easy Right?? Another version is to make this into a dip.  Cut pickles into bite sized pieces, cut ham into chunks.  Whip the cream cheese until it is creamy and add the pickles and ham.  Serve with veggies or crackers.  Super easy and super yummy either recipe you prefer.
