Ingredients
- 1 box of brownie mix
- 2 – 12 oz jars of hot fudge sauce
- 3 large eggs
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- Additional hot fudge sauce for topping
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- 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.
- Mix the Brownie Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, 3 large eggs, and 1/3 cup of canola oil. Stir until well combined.
- Add the Hot Fudge Sauce:
- Warm one jar of hot fudge sauce slightly in the microwave to make it easier to mix. Add the entire jar to the brownie batter and mix until fully incorporated.
Step 2: Bake the Bread
- Pour the Batter:
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake:
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven, so keep an eye on it.
Step 3: Cool and Top
- Cool:
- Allow the brownie bread to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Top with Hot Fudge:
- Once the brownie bread is completely cooled, warm the second jar of hot fudge sauce slightly and drizzle it over the top of the bread. You can be as generous as you like with the amount of fudge sauce.
Step 4: Serve
- Serve:
- Slice the hot fudge brownie bread and serve. For an extra treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
