- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup brownie mix (heat-treated if needed)

Quick Note on Brownie Mix Safety
While this recipe is egg-free, some mixes may contain untreated flour. To make it safe to eat raw:
- Microwave the dry brownie mix in a bowl for 1 minute, stirring every 15 seconds, OR
- Bake it on a sheet at 350°F for 5 minutes.
Let cool before using.
How to Make Brownie Batter Dip
You’ll be amazed how fast this comes together — less than 10 minutes from start to finish!
Step 1: Soften Your Ingredients
Make sure your cream cheese and butter are softened. This helps them blend smoothly and prevents lumps.
Step 2: Beat the Base
In a large bowl, use a hand mixer (or stand mixer) to beat together:
- Cream cheese
- Butter
Beat until light and fluffy — about 1–2 minutes.
Step 3: Add Dry Ingredients
Add in the:
- Powdered sugar
- Cocoa powder
- Brownie mix
- Vanilla
- Milk
Mix until smooth and well blended. If the dip seems too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen it up to your desired texture.
Step 4: Fold in Chocolate Chips
Use a spatula to gently fold in the chocolate chips. Mini chips distribute more evenly, but regular chips work just fine too.
Step 5: Serve or Chill
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, top with extra chocolate chips for wow factor, and serve immediately — or cover and chill for up to 3 days. It thickens as it chills, so stir in a little milk if needed before serving.

FAQs
Q: Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely! Make it a day in advance, refrigerate, and let it soften a bit before serving.
Q: Can I use whipped cream cheese?
Yes, but it will be slightly fluffier and may need less milk.
Q: Can I use only brownie mix (no cocoa)?
You can, but cocoa adds deeper flavor. Use both for balance.
Q: Is this gluten-free?
Only if your brownie mix is certified gluten-free. Otherwise, no.
