Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup hot fudge sauce (plus extra for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until all are evenly combined, ensuring a uniform dry mixture.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar until smooth and well blended. Then stir in the melted butter and vanilla extract until the mixture is fully combined and glossy.
  4. Add the Fudge Sauce: Incorporate the 1/2 cup of hot fudge sauce into the wet ingredient mixture, stirring until the batter is smooth and evenly infused with rich chocolate flavor.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be thick but smooth.
  6. Bake the Bread: Pour the thick batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan and spread the surface lightly with a spatula for even baking.
  7. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-45 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center—it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs. The top should appear slightly cracked and set.
  8. Cool and Drizzle: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer the loaf to a wire rack and cool completely.
  9. Serve: Before serving, drizzle extra hot fudge sauce over the top of the cooled brownie bread for an extra layer of indulgent flavor and gooey texture.

Notes

  • Be sure to use unsweetened cocoa powder for balanced chocolate flavor without added sugar.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense, tough texture; fold gently until combined.
  • Use fresh eggs at room temperature for best mixing and rise.
  • Cooling completely before drizzling ensures the fudge sauce stays on top and doesn’t melt into the bread.
  • Store leftover brownie bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
