Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and fully melted.
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla until smooth. Mix in the melted chocolate, scraping the bowl as needed to combine thoroughly.
