Questions I Often Get Asked About This Recipe
Q: Can I make this dip ahead of time?
A: Absolutely! You can make this dip a day ahead and store it in the refrigerator. Just give it a good stir before serving. The flavors actually get better as they sit.
Q: Can I use a different type of chocolate?
A: Yes! If you prefer a different type of chocolate, you can use milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of dark chocolate. Just adjust the sweetness to your preference.
Q: How do I thicken the dip if it’s too runny?
A: If your dip is too thin, add a little more powdered sugar or cream cheese until it reaches your desired thickness. Be careful not to add too much at once – start with a tablespoon.
Q: Can I make this dip without using raw flour?
A: Yes! If you’re concerned about using raw flour, you can bake the flour at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes to kill any potential bacteria. Let it cool before adding it to the dip.
Q: What can I dip in this dessert dip?
A: This dip pairs wonderfully with graham crackers, pretzels, apple slices, strawberries, or cookies. You can even serve it with mini waffles or marshmallows!
What You Need to Make Brownie Batter Cheesecake Dip
For the Dip:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (baked to kill bacteria, if preferred)
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (melted and slightly cooled)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (or milk for a lighter option)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
For Dipping (optional):
- Graham crackers
- Fresh fruit (apples, strawberries, etc.)
- Pretzels
- Cookies or mini wafer cookies
How to Make Brownie Batter Cheesecake Dip
1. Prepare the dip base:
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and brown sugar, and beat until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
2. Add the dry ingredients:
Add the flour, cocoa powder, and salt to the mixture, and beat until fully combined. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure everything is mixed well.
3. Melt the chocolate:
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until completely smooth. Let the melted chocolate cool slightly before adding it to the dip mixture.
4. Finish the dip:
Once the melted chocolate has cooled, add it to the cream cheese mixture along with the vanilla extract. Mix everything together until smooth. Gradually add the heavy cream, a little at a time, and mix until the dip reaches your desired consistency. If you prefer a thicker dip, add a little more powdered sugar; for a thinner dip, add a little more cream.
5. Chill and serve:
Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve with graham crackers, fruit, pretzels, or cookies for dipping.
Tips
- For a richer flavor: Use dark chocolate chips or even semi-sweet chocolate for a deeper, more complex taste.
- Add a little crunch: Fold in some mini chocolate chips or crushed nuts (like pecans or walnuts) for added texture.
- Make it extra sweet: Drizzle some caramel sauce or chocolate syrup over the top of the dip just before serving for an extra indulgent treat.
