How to Make Hot Fudge Brownie Bread
Step 1: Prepare the Dry Ingredients
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.
Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, until just combined.
Step 3: Add the Chocolate Chips
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 4: Add the Fudge Swirl
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Drizzle 2-3 tbsp of hot fudge sauce over the batter, then swirl it gently with a knife.
- Add the rest of the batter on top and repeat the hot fudge drizzle and swirl for the top layer.
Step 5: Bake the Bread
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 6: Make the Hot Fudge Sauce Drizzle
- In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, chocolate chips, butter, and corn syrup (if using).
- Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Let the hot fudge sauce cool slightly before drizzling it over the cooled brownie bread.
Step 7: Serve & Enjoy!
- Slice the Hot Fudge Brownie Bread into thick slices, drizzle with the hot fudge sauce, and serve. Enjoy the ultimate chocolate indulgence!
