  1. In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese and butter until smooth.
  2. Mix in powdered sugar, brown sugar and vanilla.
  3. Stir in chocolate chips.
  4. Cover and chill for 2 hours.
  5. Optional: Shape chilled mixture into a ball. Wrap with plastic and chill for another hour.
  6. Roll cheese ball in finely chopped pecans before serving.
