Hey everyone, hope you had a good Sunday-funday.  We spent our day with our best friends tailgating, watching our beloved Vikes play horribly, and watching more football.  I’ve got another tailgate/hosting friendly recipe for you all and it’s AHHHHmazing.  Brownie batter dip aka heaven.  Due to the copious amounts of adult beverages that tend to be consumed while tailgating, I lightened up the recipe a bit…because lets be honest, the last thing you want is to add unnecessary calories, AND this way you can eat more of it without feeling as guilty.  This dip is incredibly quick to throw together and will satisfy all you chocoholics out there.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces fat free cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) margarine, softened to room temperature
  • 2 cups powdered sugar, (may need more for a stiffer consistency)
  • 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 5 tablespoons cocoa powder, regular or Dutch-process
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons skim milk
  • Chocolate chips for garnish (optional)
  • Pretzels, strawberries, graham crackers, animal crackers, apples for dipping
  1. Whip cream cheese and margarine until light and fluffy (1-2 minutest) using either a stand mixer or a large bowl and hand mixer
  2. Add 2 cups of the powdered sugar and mix well
  3. Add the flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, vanilla and 2 tablespoons milk.
  4. Mix until fluffy and smooth.

*Your dip should be soft enough that your dippers don’t break but not too soft that it looses its shape and fluffy texture*
