Ingredients for Best Chocolate Syrup Brownies
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar

- All Purpose Flour
- 1 cup chocolate syrup (Hershey's or your favorite brand)
- Vanilla Extract
- Walnuts
How to Make Best Chocolate Syrup Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This is best done with an electric mixer.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Add the salt and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the chocolate syrup, vanilla extract, and chopped nuts (if using).
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached (it shouldn't be completely clean, as brownies are meant to be fudgy).
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. This allows them to set properly.
- Once cooled, cut into squares and garnish with walnut or pecan halves, or dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
