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

Additional

  • 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 ensure the bread doesn’t stick after baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined, creating a uniform chocolate dry mix.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar together until smooth and slightly fluffy. Then stir in the melted unsalted butter and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly for a rich, silky base.
  4. Add the Fudge Sauce: Incorporate the 1/2 cup of hot fudge sauce into the wet mixture, stirring until the batter is smooth and all the ingredients are fully blended for maximum fudgy flavor.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing gently just until combined to maintain the batter’s thickness and avoid overmixing.
  6. Bake the Bread: Pour the dense batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, and the top has a slight crack indicating a perfect crust.
  7. Cool and Drizzle: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Just before serving, drizzle extra hot fudge sauce over the top for an irresistible finishing touch.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper for easy removal of the bread from the pan.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the bread tender.
  • If hot fudge sauce is unavailable, substitute with thick chocolate syrup or ganache.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • Reheat slices briefly in the microwave for a warm, gooey bite.
