Ingredients Needed

You only need 5 basic ingredients to make this brownie batter dip recipe! So simple, but they come together for a luscious, amazing treat! Looking for measurements? They’re all in the recipe card below.

  • Brownie Mix: To give the dip that perfect brownie flavor, you’ll need a 16.3-ounce box of brownie mix.
  • Cream Cheese: I recommend full-fat cream cheese that is at room temperature to add a mild sweet and tangy taste.
  • Vanilla Extract: Warm vanilla flavor balances the sweetness and tang of the cream cheese.
  • Salt: Just a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.
  • Whipped Topping: Cool Whip or another dessert topping gives this dip a light and airy consistency.

  3. Combine the Other Ingredients: Add the cooled brownie mix and beat until smooth. Then fold in the whipped topping by hand.
  4. Serve: Transfer to a serving bowl and top brownie batter dip with mini chocolate chips, chocolate Jimmies, or mini m&ms.

Tips and Tricks

Sweet, chocolatey and rich, the perfect combination without the hassle of baking. Here are a few tips so this recipe is perfect!

  • Heat-Treat the Brownie Mix: Brownie mix contains uncooked flour, which can sometimes carry E.coli. By heating it in the microwave before using it in this recipe, you will kill off any potential bacteria that could make you or your guests sick. Don’t skip this step!
  • Extra Chocolate: Add extra chocolate flavor by mixing in 3-4 tablespoons of cocoa powder to the brownie mix and cream cheese.
  • Mix-ins: Fold in chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, mint chips, or any kind of chip you desire!
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve with pretzels, cookies, graham crackers, wafer cookies, and waffle cones, or eat it by the spoonful! (I won’t judge!)

Storing Leftovers

This brownie batter dip is great for making ahead because it stores so well. Here are my tips for keeping it fresh and flavorful.

  • In the Refrigerator: Store leftover dip in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

Can Brownie Batter Dip Be Frozen?

I don’t recommend freezing this dip. The whipped topping and cream cheese break down as they defrost and the dip no longer has a pleasant texture.
