Here’s a rich and indulgent recipe for Hot Fudge Brownie Bread:
Hot Fudge Brownie Bread
Servings: 8–10 slices | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 50–55 minutes
Ingredients
For the Bread:
•1 cup all-purpose flour
•½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
•1 tsp baking powder
•¼ tsp salt
•½ cup unsalted butter, melted
•1 cup granulated sugar
•½ cup brown sugar, packed
•2 large eggs
•1 tsp vanilla extract
•½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
•½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
For the Hot Fudge Layer:
•½ cup hot fudge sauce (store-bought or homemade, warmed slightly for easy pouring)
Instructions
1.Prepare for Baking:
•Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
2.Mix the Dry Ingredients:
•In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3.Combine Wet Ingredients:
•In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
•Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and sour cream until fully combined.
4.Form the Batter:
•Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips.
5.Layer the Fudge:
•Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly. Drizzle half of the hot fudge sauce over the batter. Add the remaining batter on top, spreading evenly, and drizzle the rest of the hot fudge on top. Swirl the fudge into the batter gently with a knife.
6.Bake:
•Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking to keep it fudgy).
7.Cool and Serve:
•Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
Pro Tip: Serve slices with an extra drizzle of hot fudge and a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an over-the-top dessert!
This Hot Fudge Brownie Bread combines the decadence of brownies with the comfort of a loaf bread—perfect for any chocolate lover!
