Ohhh yes — Brownie Bread 🍫🍞
Basically a brownie + loaf cake hybrid: fudgy, sliceable, dangerously snackable.
Brownie Bread
Ingredients
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ½ cup chocolate chips (optional but very recommended)
Instructions
1️⃣ Prep

2️⃣ Mix wet
- Melt butter and let cool slightly
- Whisk in sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth
3️⃣ Add dry
- Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder
- Fold in chocolate chips
4️⃣ Bake
- Pour batter into loaf pan
- Bake 40–50 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs (not wet)
5️⃣ Cool
