Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ball (Or Dip)

Nif's Note:

This is an awesome dip to have at a gathering. It tastes like cookie dough, but is more spreadable and does not have raw egg in it. Use chocolate graham wafers (or regular ones) or 'Nila crackers to spread it on. A Nurse that I work with brought this to a party in a beautiful serving bowl and everyone loved it. I haven't tried the dough ball version, but it sounds good too. Thanks Shannon! Enjoy!

I have made this twice now. It's fantastic. Took it to an office party and everybody wanted the recipe. It is easy to make and everybody should try it.
