Fudgy Brownie Batter Dip For Your Sweet Tooth
I have such sweet memories of helping my grandma bake cookies and pies when I was a child. The best part of the process was getting to lick the bowls. She was always generous to avoid using a spatula to clean the bowl. Hence comes my love for batter, which is why this brownie batter dip has become a favorite of mine.
You can finally eat your brownie batter raw without the risk of getting any harmful bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli. Instead of using raw eggs, we’ll be using melted butter and milk to give that same creamy texture. The raw flour will be heated in the oven for several minutes to kill the bacteria before use, making this brownie dip safe to eat.
After heating the flour, there are no more complex steps. All you need to do is mix the wet ingredients with flour, sugar, and chocolate chunks together. It’s so easy that you can serve this treat with your favorite dippers in less than 20 minutes.
Whether it’s a party, potluck, or a simple family movie night, you can serve this chocolate dip for any occasion. Your kids will surely love the rich, fudgy taste.

Ingredients You Will Need
Get ready to indulge in a creamy, chocolatey treat with these simple ingredients for the ultimate brownie butter dip.
- All-purpose flour: Choose unbleached flour for a more natural, wholesome taste and richer texture.
- Unsalted butter: You’ll want fresh butter with a high butterfat content of around 80-82% to provide a rich consistency of your dip.
- Granulated sugar: It should use pure cane sugar to give a clean, sweet flavor without any nasty aftertaste.
- Powdered sugar: Go for pure powdered sugar that only contains sugar and a bit of starch to prevent clumping. If you hate additives, choose organic powdered sugar.
- Milk: Use fresh whole milk with a high fat content, around 3.25%, to achieve that desired rich, creamy consistency of your dip.
- Cocoa powder: Choose Dutch-processed cocoa powder to achieve a smooth and less acidic taste. For a more pronounced chocolate flavor, make sure that it’s far way before its expiration date.
- Chocolate chunks: Opt for semi-sweet chocolate with at least 50% of cocoa solids to give that right balance of sweetness and rich cocoa flavor.

Variations and Substitutions
- Love s’mores? Add mini marshmallows, Graham crackers, and chocolate chunks to the mix.
- If you want to save time in baking the flour, you can use heat-treated flour. Alternative flours like oat flour and almond flour can also be eaten raw, but you need to increase the milk content.
- Swap semi-sweet chocolate for dark chocolate to get a more intense flavor. For a creamier taste, choose milk chocolate.
- If you don’t enjoy chocolate chunks, use mini chocolate chips for a smoother dip.
- Make your dip dairy-free with almond milk, coconut milk, or oat milk instead of regular milk.
- Stir-in some peanut butter to add a rich, nutty flavor.
- To add a refreshing twist, mix in some mint chocolate chips or add a few drops of peppermint extract.
- Stir in some mini M&M, nuts, and other candy mix-ins for extra texture.
How To Make Brownie Batter Dip
Once you have all the ingredients, let’s get started!
1
Mix Wet Ingredients With Sugar
First, melt your butter in a microwave or stovetop. Set aside to let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, add powdered sugar and granulated sugar. Mix together, then gradually pour the melted butter. Mix again until you see no sugar lumps.
Slowly pour your milk into the butter and sugar mixture. Stir until smooth and creamy.
2
Add Flour And Cocoa Powder
At this point, you should have the baked flour ready. To do this, simply bake your flour for 5 minutes in a preheated oven of 350 degrees Fahrenheit. This process will kill the bacteria that may cause foodborne illness.
Now, place a fine mesh sifter over your bowl of wet mixture. Add the baked flour and cocoa powder, then gently shake the sifter to allow them to pass through the mesh. If you see any lumps left behind in the sifter, break them up with your fingers and sift again, or discard them when they’re too tough. Using a wooden spoon, stir well until smooth.
3
Fold In Chocolate Chunks
Place the chocolate chunks on top of your brownie mixture. Using a wooden spoon, scoop from the bottom and fold the mixture over the chocolate. As you do this, keep turning the bowl to ensure that all the chunks are evenly incorporated into the mixture.
4
Serve To Enjoy
Now that you have your edible brownie batter dip ready, it’s ready to serve. You can enjoy it as it is or pair it with a variety of dippers, from fresh fruit to pretzels and Graham crackers.
Gina’s Tips For Recipe Success
- If the mixture is too thick, add one tablespoon of milk at a time until you reach the desired smooth consistency.
- Make sure that your milk is at room temperature to ensure that it mixes well with the rest of the ingredients.
- Avoid overmixing the chocolate chunks with the brownie mixture. Doing so will only break the chunks.
- You can refrigerate the dip for 30 minutes before serving. This extra step will help produce a better flavor and texture for scooping.
Scooping Ideas
Marshmallows: Large marshmallows or use mini marshmallows for dipping.
Fruit Dippers: Serve with whole strawberries, apple slices, banana chunks, or pear slices for a fresh and sweet pairing.
Cookies & Crackers: Provide options like graham crackers, shortbread cookies, vanilla wafers, or chocolate chip cookies for scooping.
Churro Chips: Serve with cinnamon sugar pita chips or fried tortilla wedges for a playful, crunchy dipper.
Storing Leftovers
You can enjoy more brownie dip goodness for up to 5 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to serve, let it sit at room temperature for a 15 to 20 minutes to soften, or stir in a bit of milk if it seems too thick.
