4 c Powdered sugar

-(yes, four cups!) 8 oz Cream cheese (one

-large package or -3 small packages -less a nibble) 1 t Vanilla extract

5 oz Unsweetened chocolate

Assorted toppings -(cocoa, powdered sugar, -crushed nuts, jimmies, -etc.) Mix the powdered sugar into the softened cream cheese a little (2/3 cup) at a time, making sure it is well blended after every addition. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler and add it to the cream cheese mixture along with the vanilla. Mix well. Chill for a couple hours. Roll mix into one inch balls, then roll them in a topping. Chill. NOTES: * Easy-to-make candies with chocolate and cream cheese -- Here's a good recipe for lazy chocolate freaks. They're not as good as the ones you buy in good candy stores, but they're still yummy. * If you're adventurous, try substituting the liqueur of your choice for the vanilla. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 30 minutes preparation, 2 hours chilling, 20 minutes rolling. : Precision: measure the ingredients. : -- Chan Benson : {ihnp4
