Completely safe to eat, it’s made with brownie mix, pudding mix, cream cheese, and a couple of other ingredients that come together to make this creamy, chocolatey dessert dip with no baking required. I always add other toppings and mix-ins, then dip cookies and fruit, for a brownie-flavored treat.

How to Make Brownie Batter Dip Step by Step
Heat treat the brownie mix: Gather your ingredients. Heat the brownie mix in a medium-sized, microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds on high heat and stir well.
Heat again for 30 seconds and stir. Repeat until the mix has been cooked for at least 2 minutes and reaches at least 165°F evenly throughout.
Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In a separate mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat 8 oz cream cheese spread and 8 oz whipped topping until light and fluffy.
Combine the brownie mix and the cream cheese mix: Whisk the pudding into the brownie mix and then gradually beat the dry ingredients into the cream cheese mixture until combined.
Gradually add the first 6 tablespoons of chocolate milk, beating well until light and fluffy.
Slowly add the following 2 tablespoons, one at a time as needed, beating well until you reach your desired consistency.
Scoop the dip into a large serving bowl and top with mini chocolate chips or mini M&Ms, optional.
Serve: Serve with your choice of sides, such as Oreos, graham crackers, pretzels, vanilla wafers, and strawberries, and enjoy.
Variations on Brownie Dip
This brownie batter dip is endlessly customizable. Here, I added mini M&M’s, but you could add in any mix-ins you love, such as mini chocolate chips (dark, milk, or white), cookie pieces (Oreos, Nutter Butters, Chips Ahoy, etc.), sprinkles (rainbow or chocolate), chopped candy bars (Twix, Milky Way, Reese’s Cups, Snickers, etc.), chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, pistachios, etc.), or mini marshmallows.
How to Store
Store leftover brownie batter dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving chilled.
If your dip becomes too thick after refrigeration, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes and then stir vigorously or gradually add a tablespoon or two of chocolate milk until the dip reaches the desired consistency.
Freeze brownie batter dip in an airtight container or Ziplock bag for up to 2 months. I recommend rolling the batter into bite-sized balls before freezing so you can just enjoy one straight from the freezer!
Serving Suggestions
I love to serve this brownie batter dip with Oreos, graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or strawberries. It’s also delicious with shortbread cookies and caramel pretzels , or you can also prepare saltine cracker toffee for dipping.
If you make your own ice cream (I love this red velvet ice cream recipe !), you can roll pea-sized balls of dip and add them in during the last 5 minutes of churning. If you want to add it to store-bought ice cream, just crumble some on top!

This Essential Grocery List is an absolute life saver for my family on the busy weeks. When I started this journey to learn how to cook, I quickly realized that the first step in cooking is having staple ingredients on hand. I want to avoid having to run out to the grocery store every single time I prepare a new recipe. Having a well-stocked pantry has made my life in the kitchen so much simpler, because when it’s time to cook, I have what I need.
Essential Grocery List
It’s so helpful to have a basic grocery list to help me remember which foods to buy at the store. This food shopping list is my go-to!
It’s better to stock up on things like grains, seasonings and spices, baking essentials, oils, condiments, canned and frozen foods, etc. so I can just grab them when I need them. These things have a long shelf life , so I keep them in my kitchen for convenience.
However, I do have to go to the supermarket sometimes, and there’s a way to make that trip easy and hassle-free: I keep a grocery list! If I go in blindly, I’ll leave with things I don’t need, and nothing that actually helps me prepare a good meal.
In the list below, I’ve compiled everything I always have on my stock-up grocery list.
I’ve got you covered! I created an easy grocery list filled with all of the essentials. Plus there’s a free printable version that you can take with you to the grocery store. It has everything you need to stock your pantry, your freezer, and your refrigerator.

What to Buy at the Grocery Store
