Ingredients
• 1 box brownie mix
• 1 (11 oz) jar hot fudge sauce
• 3 large eggs
• ⅓ cup vegetable oil
• A bread loaf pan
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Grease a non-stick loaf pan with cooking spray or lightly butter and flour it to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Prepare the Batter
1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, hot fudge sauce, eggs, and vegetable oil.
2. Stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
Step 3: Fill the Pan
1. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, filling it about ¾ full to allow room for the bread to rise.
Step 4: Bake
1. Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
2. Keep an eye on it to prevent overbaking, as the bread should remain moist and fudgy.
Step 5: Cool Completely
1. Remove the loaf pan from the oven and allow the brownie bread to cool completely in the pan.
Note: Cooling is essential to prevent sticking and to keep the loaf intact when removing from the pan.
Step 6: Slice and Serve
1. Once cooled, gently remove the brownie bread from the pan.
2. Slice and serve as is, or pair with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for extra indulgence.
Tips
• Make It Extra Chocolaty: Swirl in additional hot fudge sauce before baking or sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
• Toppings: Drizzle with melted chocolate or powdered sugar for a decorative finish.
• Pan Options: For individual servings, bake in mini loaf pans or muffin tins, adjusting the bake time accordingly.
Storage Options
• Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
• Refrigeration: Keep in the fridge for up to 5 days for a denser, fudgier texture.
• Freezing: Wrap slices individually in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
