Recipe preparation

Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

  • All-Purpose Flour: Use high-quality flour for the best texture and structure in your loaf.
  • Cocoa Powder: Opt for unsweetened cocoa powder to balance out the sweetness of the fudge.
  • Granulated Sugar: Regular white sugar adds sweetness without altering the flavor profile.
  • Brown Sugar: This gives moisture and a hint of caramel flavor—don’t skip it!
  • Baking Powder: Ensure your bread rises nicely and achieves that perfect fluffy texture.
  • Salt: Just a pinch enhances all the flavors; trust me on this one!
  • Eggs: Use large eggs at room temperature for better incorporation into your batter.
  • Vanilla Extract: A splash of pure vanilla elevates the overall flavor beautifully.
  • Melted Butter: Adds richness; use unsalted for better control over the saltiness.
  • Hot Fudge Sauce: The star ingredient! Store-bought is fine but homemade is divine if you have time.

The full ingredients list, including measurements, is provided in the recipe card directly below.

Let’s Make It Together

Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan with nonstick spray or butter.

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Add Eggs and Wet Ingredients: Stir in eggs one at a time followed by melted butter and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy without lumps.

Add Hot Fudge Sauce: Gently fold in half of your hot fudge sauce into the batter. This creates those delightful pockets of gooey goodness.

Bake Your Bread: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and drizzle remaining hot fudge sauce on top. Bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool Down & Serve: Allow your masterpiece to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice it up warm or let it cool completely—if you can resist!

Enjoy your rich hot fudge brownie bread with whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream—it’s like serving happiness on a plate!
