Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Add-ins and Toppings

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup hot fudge sauce (warmed)
  • ¼ cup chocolate chips (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan thoroughly and line it with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the brownie bread once baked.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until fully combined and aerated.
  3. Beat Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture becomes light and fluffy, which helps create a tender crumb.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Mix in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Then add the vanilla extract and mix to combine.
  5. Combine Dry Ingredients and Cream: Add half of the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, followed by half of the heavy cream. Mix gently to combine. Repeat by adding the remaining dry mix and cream, stirring until just combined to avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the batter to evenly distribute without deflating the mixture.
  7. Pour Batter and Bake: Pour the prepared batter into the lined loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  8. Cool the Bread: Allow the brownie bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely, helping it firm up for easier slicing.
  9. Finish with Hot Fudge and Chocolate Chips: While the bread is still warm, drizzle the warmed hot fudge sauce over the top and sprinkle with the remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips. This melting topping adds extra gooey indulgence to your brownie bread.

Notes

  • For best results, use room temperature butter and eggs to ensure smooth mixing.
  • If you prefer a more fudgy texture, reduce the baking time slightly but keep checking with a toothpick.
  • You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark or milk chocolate chips according to preference.
  • Ensure the hot fudge sauce is warmed but not too hot to avoid melting the chocolate chips too quickly when topping.
  • This bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
