by

Description:
HERSHEY’S Syrup Brownies are a fudgy, rich, and decadent treat perfect for chocolate lovers. These brownies use HERSHEY’S syrup to add an extra layer of moist, chocolatey goodness. Easy to whip up with simple ingredients, they’re ideal for weeknight desserts or special occasions when you’re craving an indulgent bite.

Ingredients:

  • Unsalted butter (melted): ½ cup (1 stick, 115 g)
  • Granulated sugar: 1 cup (200 g)
  • Eggs: 4 large
  • Vanilla extract: 1 tsp
  • HERSHEY’S chocolate syrup: 1 (16 oz) can or 1 ½ cups
  • All-purpose flour: 1 cup (120 g)
  • Baking powder: ½ tsp
  • Salt: ¼ tsp
  • Chopped nuts (optional): ½ cup (60 g)

Optional Ingredients (for extra flavor):

  • Chocolate chips: ½ cup for extra chocolatey brownies
  • Peanut butter swirl: ¼ cup for a peanut butter-chocolate combination
  • Sea salt: a pinch for a salted chocolate version

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the wet ingredients:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and HERSHEY’S chocolate syrup until smooth.
  3. Add the dry ingredients:
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the chopped nuts or any additional mix-ins if desired.
  4. Bake the brownies:
    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs attached.
  5. Cool and serve:
    Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing. For clean cuts, chill the brownies in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before cutting into squares.

Tips for Success:

  • Do not overbake: To maintain that fudgy texture, make sure you don’t overbake the brownies. They should be set around the edges but slightly gooey in the center.
  • Add toppings or swirls: For extra flair, drizzle melted chocolate, caramel, or peanut butter over the top before baking for a fun twist.
  • Cool completely: Let the brownies cool fully before cutting to avoid them falling apart.

Recommendations:

  • Serve with ice cream: For a truly indulgent dessert, top these brownies with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of extra HERSHEY’S syrup.
  • Store in an airtight container: These brownies will stay moist and delicious for up to 4-5 days if stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • Double the batch: If making these for a crowd, you can easily double the recipe and use a larger pan.
