Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 box brownie mix (dark chocolate, fudge, or regular)
- 3 large eggs
- 1/3 cup (79 milliliters) vegetable oil
- 1 jar (11 ounces/311 grams) hot fudge sauce
Binding/Moisture Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup (79 milliliters) melted butter
Optional Flavor Enhancers:
- Canola oil (alternative to vegetable oil)
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350F (175C), ensuring an even temperature for optimal baking performance.
- Whisk together brownie mix, hot fudge sauce, eggs, and oil in a mixing bowl until a smooth, uniform consistency develops. Stir carefully to prevent excessive mixing.
- Generously coat a 9×5 inch loaf pan with non-stick spray or butter. Transfer the batter into the prepared pan, filling it approximately three-quarters full to allow room for rising.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center – it should emerge with minimal moist crumbs or clean.
- Remove from oven and let the bread rest inside the pan for 10-15 minutes, allowing it to stabilize and slightly contract from the pan edges.
- Carefully extract the bread from the pan and transfer to a wire cooling rack. Allow it to cool completely, which helps set the texture and makes slicing easier.
Notes
- Swap brownie mix with gluten-free version for those with wheat sensitivities, ensuring everyone can enjoy this decadent treat.
- Reserve some hot fudge sauce for drizzling on top after baking, creating an extra layer of chocolatey indulgence.
- Check doneness early to prevent overbaking, as brownies continue cooking slightly after removal from oven, maintaining that coveted fudgy texture.
- Enhance flavor by adding chopped nuts or chocolate chips into batter for delightful textural contrast and deeper chocolate experience.
