Chocolate cream cheese dip ingredients
You will need the following: cream cheese or coconut cream, optional yogurt, pure vanilla extract, sweetener of choice, and cocoa powder or boxed brownie mix.
The easy recipe is already naturally gluten free. It can easily be low calorie, low carb, and keto friendly if you use erythritol or your favorite sugar free sweetener and unsweetened yogurt.
For a dairy free and vegan brownie batter dip, use Vegan Cream Cheese or the coconut cream option and plant based yogurt.
If you don’t have regular cocoa powder or boxed brownies on hand, hot chocolate mix will also work. Or try using a combination of unsweetened cocoa powder and Dutch cocoa powder for a deep chocolate brownie-like flavor.
Chocolate protein brownie batter dip
Want a high protein, healthy brownie batter dip? Simply substitute an equal amount of your favorite chocolate protein powder for the brownie mix or cocoa powder.
You can also whip in a few tablespoons of peanut butter or almond butter if desired.
Skip the cookies for dipping, and instead try serving the healthy snack recipe with raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, and apple slices.

How to make brownie batter dip
Bring the cream cheese or coconut cream to room temperature so it’s softer and much easier to mix with the other three ingredients.
In a blender or food processor, or with hand beaters, beat all ingredients until thick and smooth. Since you are not baking the dessert, no need to worry about over-mixing.
Transfer to a bowl, decorate with dippers as desired, and serve. Or cover and refrigerate overnight or until ready to serve at an event. Store leftovers in the refrigerator in a covered container for up to about four or five days.
While you technically can freeze leftover brownie dip, it will change the creamy texture. So I do not recommend it. Besides, it is highly unlikely you will have any leftovers!
What to dip in the recipe?
Try pretzels, graham crackers, strawberries, apples, or sliced bananas.
It’s also wonderful spread over pancakes or eaten straight from the bowl with a spoon.
Traditionally, chocolate brownie batter dip is often topped with M&Ms, caramel pieces, or marshmallows. I like to garnish mine with mini chocolate chips.
Using a food scale
If you like using gram measurements instead of cups, here are the amounts:
240 grams of cream cheese or coconut cream, 160 grams of yogurt or additional coconut cream, 7 grams of vanilla, 27 grams of cocoa, and about 160 grams sweetener.
Or if you prefer using measuring cups, the full recipe is written out below.
The recipe was adapted from my Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting.

This looks fantabulous, miss Katie!
O Hello- I think I just fell in love with a bowl of dip :OOO
This looks too yummy Katie!! I want it right now!
I dont eat batter while bake though.. Dont know why, I just dont 😛
I hope you are having an amazing day in NYC- you lucky girl<3
Haha you must have way more self control than I do! 😉
I do! 🙂 And with vegan baking there is no risk for salmonella! Wahooo!
Haha I know, right? Goodbye excuses to not eat raw cookie dough!
Beans are surprisingly friendly in a variety of sweet or dessert type options. I made a bean based cookie awhile back, and my dad just called them granola cookies, because he thought they tasted like granola – no idea I had put chickpeas in there.
I’ve been meaning to try out some sweet chickpea dips, but I have no working blender, and my food processor is on the verge of exploding…it’s so unfair, because this obviously looks delicious.
Girl you never cease to amaze me. Garbanzo beans are SUCH a great starting block for dips!!
I always eat the batter when cooking!
Katie, you’ve done it again….you’ve tempted me with beans in a dessert! I still havent actually made any beaney creations….yet.. I’ve been too busy making other things but they are on my radar screen. Not kidding!
Do you ever eat the raw batter when you bake? = Is the Pope Catholic?
That would be YES!!! Being that most all of my batters are vegan, yes, I eat them.
And I swear, the reason the high raw/no bake vegan desserts just appeal to me (other than not wanting to turn on my oven) is b/c I love to eat raw dough!!!! Today’s recipe…included raw dough 🙂
Definitely start with the deep dish cookie pie, it’s really delicious!
this looks deeeeeeeeeelish! i just have a favour to ask of you. i know you are not into the whole “calorie counting” business, but i take it that lots of your readers (including myself) are. if possible, would you mind posting the nutritional values more often? it would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Kate,
If it were up to me, I’d never include them. So I already AM doing it more than I’d like. I’m thinking of you… I love you guys! 🙂
Oh no you didn’t! ….Katie, how wonderful. Another one I’ll have to try!!! 🙂 Good thinking!
🙂
P.S. You should look at my chia-winners post. Just sayin ;).
I’ve made a “brownie batter” version of a bean dip, too. It’s good, but I have to say I love my peanut butter chocolate chunk version so much better!
And…I ALWAYS eat the batter. That way I can tell if it will taste good cooked 😛
