Dry Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup hot fudge sauce
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
For the Fudge Topping:
- 1/2 cup hot fudge sauce, warmed
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Setup: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Create the Base: In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Alternately add the dry ingredients and buttermilk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Add the Magic: Gently fold in hot fudge sauce and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Bake to Perfection: Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Final Touches: Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack. While still warm, drizzle with additional warmed hot fudge sauce and sprinkle with chocolate chips and nuts if desired.
Notes
- This bread is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat!
