Hot Fudge Brownie Bread

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.

2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.

3. Make the Wet Ingredients:

• In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
• Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• Mix in the sour cream until smooth.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
• Stir in the hot fudge sauce until fully incorporated.
• If you’re adding chocolate chips, fold them into the batter.

4. Bake the Bread:

• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
• Optionally, sprinkle mini chocolate chips and nuts on top for extra texture and flavor.
• Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
• Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

5. Serve:

• Drizzle extra hot fudge sauce on top before serving, if desired.
• Slice and enjoy the rich, fudgy, and irresistible Hot Fudge Brownie Bread!
