Ingredients
Scale
Dip Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 8 ounces whipped cream
- 18 ounces box brownie mix
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips plus more for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Brownie Mix: In a large glass bowl, add the dry brownie mix and microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, for a total of 2 minutes. This step warms the brownie mix to release its flavors. Then set aside to cool slightly.
- Beat Cream Cheese: In another large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy with no lumps remaining.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the warmed brownie mix and 1/4 cup whole milk to the cream cheese and beat until the mixture is uniform and smooth.
- Fold in Whipped Topping and Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the 8 ounces of whipped cream and 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
- Serve: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with additional mini chocolate chips. Serve immediately with your favorite dippers such as pretzels, fresh fruit, graham crackers, or cookies for dipping.
Notes
- Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
- For a thicker dip, reduce the milk to 2 tablespoons or substitute with heavy cream.
- To make it vegan, substitute cream cheese and whipped cream with plant-based alternatives and ensure the brownie mix is dairy-free.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or espresso powder to enhance the chocolate flavor if desired.
- Always use softened cream cheese at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother texture.
