Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by setting out cream cheese and unsalted butter at room temperature for 30-45 minutes until softened.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and butter, and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Gradually sift in powdered sugar and cocoa powder, mixing on low speed, then increase to medium speed until smooth and well-integrated.
  4. Add vanilla extract and fine sea salt, blending on medium speed for 30 seconds until incorporated.
  5. Pour in milk or heavy cream gradually, mixing on low speed until a scoopable consistency is reached.
  6. Gently fold in mini chocolate chips using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Transfer the dip into a serving bowl, smoothing the top with a spatula; optionally chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
  8. Serve the Brownie Batter Dip with pretzels, graham crackers, or fresh strawberries.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese and butter are softened to avoid lumps. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary. Serve fresh for best texture and flavor.
