Dip Ingredients
- 1 block (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup salted butter, softened
- 2 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk (plus 1 tablespoon extra, optional)
- 5 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Chocolate chips for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Beat Cream Cheese and Butter: In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until the mixture is light and fluffy, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes. This step ensures a smooth and creamy base for your dip.
- Add Sugar and Milk: Gradually add the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk while continuing to beat the mixture. Beat until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
- Incorporate Cocoa and Flavorings: Add cocoa powder, brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Beat again until smooth and creamy. If the dip is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve: Transfer the brownie batter dip to a serving bowl and optionally garnish with chocolate chips. Serve with strawberries, vanilla wafers, pretzels, marshmallows, or any preferred dippables. Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese and butter are softened to room temperature for best mixing results.
- You can adjust the thickness by adding more milk, one tablespoon at a time.
- Keep the dip refrigerated if not consuming immediately; it can be stored for up to 3 days.
- Feel free to customize garnishes with nuts, sprinkles, or your favorite candies for texture and flavor.
