Table of Contents

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 can (16 oz) Hershey’s chocolate syrup
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

For the Frosting

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Make the Brownies

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  4. Add Hershey’s Syrup: Stir in the Hershey’s chocolate syrup until the batter is well blended. If using, fold in the chopped walnuts.
  5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.

Make the Frosting

  1. Prepare the Frosting: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, milk, and granulated sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Let it boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat and stir in the chocolate chips until smooth.
  2. Frost the Brownies: Pour the warm frosting over the cooled brownies, spreading it out evenly. Let the frosting set before cutting into squares.

Tips for Perfect Hershey’s Syrup Brownies

  • Don’t Overbake: Keep an eye on the brownies as they bake to prevent them from drying out. They should be just set in the center.
  • Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother batter.
  • Let Them Cool: Allow the brownies to cool completely before frosting to ensure the frosting sets properly.

Recipe Variations

  • Nutty Brownies: Add 1/2 cup of chopped pecans or almonds along with the walnuts for extra crunch.
  • Peanut Butter Swirl: Add dollops of peanut butter to the batter before baking and use a knife to swirl it in for a chocolate-peanut butter combination.
  • Mint Frosting: Add 1/2 teaspoon of mint extract to the frosting for a chocolate-mint twist.
