Description

This Hot Fudge Brownie Bread is a decadent loaf featuring rich cocoa-infused batter swirled with luscious hot fudge sauce, studded with semi-sweet chocolate chips for extra indulgence. Perfectly baked to achieve a gooey, fudgy center and a tender crumb, this dessert bread offers a perfect balance of chocolatey richness and melt-in-your-mouth texture. Ideal served warm with ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar for an irresistible treat.

Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Hot Fudge Swirl

  • ½ cup hot fudge sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • ¼ cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the bread after baking.
  2. Make Brownie Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until well combined. Sift in the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Gently stir the ingredients until the batter comes together without overmixing. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips to distribute throughout the batter.
  3. Prepare Hot Fudge Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the hot fudge sauce and heavy cream. Mix until smooth and pourable. If the mixture feels too thick, warm it gently in the microwave for about 10 seconds to soften.
  4. Layer Batter and Fudge: Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Drizzle half of the hot fudge mixture over the batter. Use a knife to swirl the fudge into the batter, creating a marbled effect. Add the remaining brownie batter on top, spreading evenly, then drizzle the remaining hot fudge mixture over the top and swirl again.
  5. Bake the Bread: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs attached but no raw batter.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the brownie bread cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice while still warm for a gooey, melty experience. For serving, pair with a scoop of ice cream, a drizzle of chocolate sauce, or a dusting of powdered sugar to elevate the dessert.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper in the loaf pan for easy removal and cleaner edges.
  • Do not overmix the batter once the dry ingredients are added to keep the texture tender.
  • Warm the hot fudge slightly if it’s too thick to drizzle.
  • Check the bread starting at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking and drying out the brownie bread.
  • Serve warm for the best gooey texture or chilled slices for a fudgier, denser bite.
