Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup hot fudge sauce (plus extra for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until they are thoroughly combined.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar together until smooth and well blended. Then stir in the melted unsalted butter and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  4. Add the Fudge Sauce: Stir the 1/2 cup of hot fudge sauce into the wet mixture until the mixture is smooth and well combined, creating a rich chocolate base.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined to maintain a thick batter. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
  6. Bake the Bread: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even bake.
  7. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached. The top of the bread should develop a slightly cracked surface.
  8. Cool: Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Allow it to cool completely to set the fudgy texture.
  9. Drizzle and Serve: Drizzle extra hot fudge sauce over the cooled bread before slicing and serving for added decadence and gooey goodness.

Notes

  • Ensure the hot fudge sauce is warm and pourable before mixing to integrate smoothly into the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter once combining wet and dry ingredients to keep the bread tender and fudgy.
  • Use a toothpick test during baking to avoid overbaking, which can dry out the bread.
  • For an extra indulgent treat, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  • Store leftovers wrapped tightly at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
