Brownie Batter Dip

It's pot luck time again, and if you're anything like me, you're looking for something "different" to take. I always take desserts, because I find them easier to transport, and while I love a good cupcake, I always want to try something different, and I love anything I can dip a graham cracker in, or any excuse to eat Vanilla Wafers like I'm 3 years old!

Granted, this Brownie Batter Dip is old news on Pinterest, I'd never actually seen anyone I know in real life try this, giving it great Pot Luck potential! I could not get over how much this tasted like brownie batter, in my opinion the best part of most brownies. And bonus, no raw eggs, making me less weary of giving my kids a spoonful to keep quiet for a few minutes!

Brownie Batter Dip
Ingredients:

8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
4 Tablespoons butter, room temperature
2 cups powdered sugar
5 Tablespoons flour
5 Tablespoons cocoa powder (regular or Dutch-process. I usually use Dutch)
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2-4 Tablespoons milk
Pretzels, strawberries, marshmallows, graham crackers, vanilla wafers or whatever you want for dipping!

Directions:

Using a mixer, whip the cream cheese and butter together, about 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and mix well. Add the flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, vanilla and 2 Tablespoons of milk. Mix until smooth.

Add extra powdered sugar or milk as needed, until you get a the right consistency - soft enough to act as a dip, but not runny.

The Best Vanilla Cupcake Recipe

A fabulous vanilla cupcake recipe is something everyone needs. EVERY.ONE. Not just bakers. Not just parents that host a lot of kid parties. Everyone. I've tried several, and many have been phenomenal. Then I tried Amy Sedaris's after finding the recipe online, and it was above and beyond the best vanilla cupcake I've ever made. It was an easy batter to make, baked up beautifully, and most importantly - tasted amazing. Regardless if you have never made vanilla cupcakes and need a recipe to start with, or even if you think you have the best - give this one a shot. You will not be disappointed! Vanilla Cupcakes Ingredients: 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature 1 1/2 cups sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 1/2 cups flour 1 1/4 cups milk Directions: - Preheat oven to 375 degrees. - Mix butter at medium speed until smooth. Mix in sugar until well blended. - Add eggs, mixing until fully

Slow Cooker or Pressure Cooker Beef Chili

I don't experiment much with chili because it rarely goes well for me and my family. I've slowly adapted my chili recipe over the years, but I've still always used canned chili beans, with a flavored sauce. I've been wanting to try regular beans (whether canned or dried, I wasn't discerning, just didn't want the sauce), so off to the Googles I went rather than trying to recreate the spice blend from my normal canned beans. Because I was originally planning to make chili in the Instant Pot, that's where I focused my search. Thankfully the recipe I decided to try was adapted from a Slow Cooker recipe, because life got in my way and I wasn't able to make the chili the night before as planned, and I wouldn't have had time to use the pressure cooker with my schedule that day. What drew me to this recipe was the simplicity of the ingredients. And lack of jalapeno. Because somehow nearly every time I plan chili I forget to buy a jalapeno, even if it

White Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse Filling

OK, so, while this recipe was the result of me literally quick thinking at the grocery store rushing around to pick up a few ingredients over Easter weekend, I came up with a fantastic cake filling, in my humble opinion. I love the cake fillings at Costco and wanted to make a variation on that. This is really semi-homemade but oh so good! It's rich, creamy and decadent. Even my husband loved it, and he's not really a cake fan. It was so easy to make too! White Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse Filling Ingredients: 1 package Jello Pudding - Cheesecake flavor 1 8-oz. container Whipped Cream Cheese, softened 1 8-oz, container Cool Whip, thawed 3 oz.
