Brownie batter dip is an easy, 5-ingredient dessert dip. This quick, no bake recipe is perfect for anyone who can’t resist licking brownie batter off the spatula!
In a large microwave safe mixing bowl add the brownie mix and microwave for 2 minutes stopping at 30 second intervals to mix thoroughly. Set aside to cool.
20 ounce package of brownie mix
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese with the vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula.
8 ounce block of cream cheese, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Add in the cool whip and mix until just combined, scraping the bowl once to make sure it is all evenly combined.
8 ounce tub cool whip
Add in the brownie mix, and fold in until well blended.
Fold in the chocolate chips and remove to a serving container.
⅓ cup mini chocolate chips
Chill for 2 hours before serving.
Sprinkle with additional chocolate chips just before serving, if desired.
Notes
Brownie mix: I like to use Ghirardelli brownie mix, but feel free to use your favorite brownie mix.
Cream cheese: Regular cream cheese or reduced-fat cream cheese. I don't recommend using fat-free cream cheese as it doesn't mix well.
Cool Whip: Tru Whip also works well. Or you can use 1 and 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream and beat it to form soft peaks. If you use heavy cream, the dip won't be as sweet.
Espresso powder: If you want dip with more depth, add 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder with the vanilla.
