Ingredients
Scale
For the Brownie Bread:
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for topping or folding in)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Let cool slightly.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: Whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Add Optional Chocolate Chips: Fold in mini chocolate chips if using.
- Bake: Pour the thick batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top if desired. Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Slice: Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- For extra fudginess, slightly underbake and allow to set while cooling.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
