Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- ½ cup (1 stick) butter, at room temperature
- 1 (8 ounce) block cream cheese, at room temperature
Mix-Ins
- 1 ½ cups brownie mix
- 2 – 3 tablespoons milk
- ½ cup chopped M&Ms, plus more for the top
Instructions
- Beat butter and cream cheese: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and cream cheese together on medium speed until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Add brownie mix: With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the brownie mix to the butter and cream cheese mixture. This helps to prevent the dry ingredients from flying out and incorporates them evenly.
- Adjust consistency with milk: Gradually add 2 to 3 tablespoons of milk, depending on preferred consistency, mixing until the dip is smooth and spreadable but not too runny.
- Fold in chopped M&Ms: Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the chopped M&Ms to avoid crushing them, distributing them evenly throughout the dip.
- Transfer and garnish: Spoon the dip into a serving bowl and sprinkle additional whole or chopped M&Ms on top for a colorful and festive finish. Serve immediately with your choice of dippers.
Notes
- You can substitute brownie mix with a gluten-free brownie mix if desired.
- Adjust the amount of milk to get your preferred dip thickness.
- This dip is best served fresh but can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Pair with cookies, pretzels, graham crackers, or fruit slices for dipping.
- For added texture and flavor, try adding a pinch of sea salt on top before serving.
