Tips for the Best Edible Brownie Batter
I’m that person who always sneaks a spoonful (or three) of brownie batter before it hits the oven.
So, naturally, this edible brownie batter is my dream come true.
It’s rich, chocolatey, and perfectly safe to eat. And with these tips, it’s perfect every time!
- Choose quality cocoa. It’s the main source of flavor, so splurge on something good. For the best results, use Dutch-processed cocoa powder.
- Melt and cool the butter. If it’s too hot, the dip will be oily.
- Quick cooling. Spread the heat treated flour on parchment in a thin layer. It’ll cool in no time.
- Adjust the consistency with milk. Add the milk slowly and only a teaspoon at a time. I like it quite thick but you can make it as soft as you like.
- Experiment with mix-ins. Add optional ingredients like peanut butter chips, caramel swirls, or marshmallows. Nutella, finely crushed nuts, and sprinkles are also good ideas.
- Use vegan alternatives. For a plant-based version, swap the butter and milk with your favorite vegan substitutes. Be sure the chocolate is also dairy-free.
- Enjoy creatively. Scoop the batter into bowls, roll it into bite-sized balls, or spread it on cookies. You can also use it as a dip for fruit or pretzels or layer it in parfaits with whipped cream.
How to Store
Edible brownie batter is just as easy to store as regular homemade brownies. (Even easier in some cases!)
You’ll just need an airtight container and proper freezing equipment.
To Store: Place the brownie batter in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Let sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before serving.
To Freeze: Form the batter into a large disc or several smaller portions. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap, place in a freezer bag, and freeze for up to 2 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw in the fridge for a few hours.
