Lets start at the beginning….In June we had our family reunion at our home in Tennessee. It was so much fun! 27 of us total and it was 3 days filled with fun, food, laughter and making lots of memories along with remembering a lot of old ones.

We swam, rode jet skis, went on boat rides and fished. It was a pretty amazing reunion! It was so much fun. there are so many recipes I want to share with you but for today Im going to share the brownie batter dip. so good and so indulgent .
Brownie Batter Dip
1 brick of Cream cheese softened.
1/2 stick Butter
2 Packets unsweetened chocolate. (I use the melted chocolate)
2-3 Cups Powdered Sugar
2-3 Teaspoons heavy Cream
1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
Fruit, vanilla wafers, graham crackers, cookies for dipping.
Mix all ingredients well with hand mixer. Add powdered sugar until desired consistency. Let set out an hour or so before serving to get room temperature. It should be soft and disable. When its in the fridge it gets hard and you want it more batter like.
Enjoy!!
