Table of Contents
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 box fudge brownie mix (heat-treated; see Instructions)
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup milk, as needed
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips, plus extra for topping
Instructions
- Heat-treat the brownie mix —
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the dry brownie mix on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake 8–10 minutes, stirring once. Cool completely. (Microwave option: heat in a microwave-safe bowl for 1 1/2 minutes, stirring every 20 seconds.) - Beat base —
With a mixer, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth and fluffy, 1–2 minutes. Blend in powdered sugar. - Finish dip —
Beat in cooled brownie mix and 1/4 cup milk until creamy. Add more milk a tablespoon at a time to reach scoopable consistency. Fold in mini chocolate chips. - Serve —
Transfer to a serving bowl, top with extra chips, and serve with fruit, cookies, or pretzels.
Troubleshooting & Consistency Tips
- Too thick: Whisk in more milk 1 tablespoon at a time until spreadable.
- Too loose: Chill 15–20 minutes or beat in 2–3 tablespoons additional powdered sugar.
- Grainy texture: Ensure brownie mix is fully cooled before adding; beat an extra minute to smooth.
- Flavor boosts: 1 teaspoon vanilla, a pinch of espresso powder, or a splash of heavy cream for extra richness.
Storage & Make-Ahead
- Refrigerate: Cover and chill up to 4 days; let stand 15 minutes and stir before serving.
- Freeze: Up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and rewhip briefly.
- Make-ahead board: Prep dip a day ahead; cut fruit just before serving to keep it fresh.
Why This Recipe Works
Heat-treating the dry mix makes this dip safe to enjoy without baking. Cream cheese and butter create a stable, fluffy base that holds air for that “batter” mouthfeel, while powdered sugar sweetens and smooths. A small amount of milk loosens the texture to a perfect scoop, and mini chips add bursts of chocolate in every bite.
Expert Tips
- Use room-temperature dairy for the silkiest texture.
- For a lighter option, swap part of the cream cheese for Greek yogurt; add extra powdered sugar to balance tang.
- Mix-ins: mini M&M’s, toffee bits, chopped nuts, or shredded coconut.
- Serving ideas: strawberries, apple slices, bananas, pretzels, graham crackers, waffle cone pieces, or vanilla wafers.
