This is a really great recipe I found from the Taste of Home website. I serve it with graham crackers and it's been a hit the few parties I've served it at. You can even use lower fat cream cheese and you can't tell the difference. It's easy to make and doesn't use that many ingredients. Enjoy!

DIRECTIONS:
In a 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.
