Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup hot fudge sauce
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare your crockpot by lightly greasing the interior with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and free of lumps, ensuring all dry ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Pour half of the prepared brownie batter into the greased crockpot, spreading it evenly across the bottom to create a uniform layer.
- Carefully drizzle half of the hot fudge sauce over the initial brownie batter layer, creating a swirled pattern.
- Add the remaining brownie batter on top of the fudge sauce, gently spreading to cover the entire surface.
- Pour the remaining hot fudge sauce over the top layer, creating another decorative swirl.
- If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts evenly across the top of the batter for added texture and flavor.
- Cover the crockpot with the lid and set to cook on low heat for approximately 2 hours.
- Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center - it should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Once cooked, turn off the crockpot and let the brownies rest for 15-20 minutes before serving.
- Carefully remove brownies from the crockpot using a large spatula, cutting into squares for serving.
- Optional: Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or additional hot fudge sauce for extra indulgence.
Tips
- • Always grease your crockpot thoroughly to prevent sticking and ensure easy serving. • Use a high-quality brownie mix for the best flavor and texture. • Don't open the crockpot lid too often while cooking, as this releases heat and can affect cooking time. • For extra richness, use dark chocolate hot fudge sauce. • The brownies are done when a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs - avoid overcooking! • Let the brownies rest for 15-20 minutes after cooking to set and become easier to remove. • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence. • If you want a more intense chocolate flavor, add a handful of chocolate chips to the batter. • Chopped nuts are optional but add a delightful crunch and depth to the dessert.
