# Ingredients:

→ Base

01 - 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
02 - 1 box brownie mix (approximately 18 to 20 ounces)
03 - 60 milliliters whole milk
04 - 8 ounces thawed whipped topping

→ Mix-ins

05 - 120 milliliters mini chocolate chips

# Instructions:

01 - Place the dry brownie mix in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments for a total of 2 minutes, stirring thoroughly between each interval. Allow to cool completely before proceeding.
02 - Using an electric hand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth and creamy.
03 - Add the cooled brownie mix and milk to the beaten cream cheese. Mix with the electric hand mixer until fully incorporated and smooth.
04 - Fold the thawed whipped topping gently into the mixture using a spatula until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.

06 - Serve immediately with preferred dippers such as graham crackers, cookies, fruit, or pretzels, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

02 - Ideal accompaniments include graham crackers, cookies, fresh fruit, or pretzels.
