I’ve been making this at least once a week for the past month!
This decadent dessert combines the rich flavors of chocolate brownies with a self-saucing, gooey fudge center. The “magic” is that the brownie bakes on top while a rich layer of hot fudge sauce forms underneath, thickening as it cools.

How To Make Hot Fudge Brownie Bread (Magic Fudge Brownies):
- Step 1: Preheat Oven and Prep: Preheat oven to . Grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.
- Step 2: Make Brownie Batter:
- Whisk together flour, cup cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Cream together melted butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Step 3: Create Fudge Center (The Magic):
- Evenly sprinkle the brown sugar and cup cocoa powder over the top of the brownie batter.
- Slowly pour the boiling water over the entire mixture. DO NOT STIR.
- Step 4: Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the edges of the top brownie layer are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
- Step 5: Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. The fudge sauce will be runny at first but will thicken as it cools.
