How to Make Hershey’s Syrup Brownies
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10×15-inch baking pan and set aside.
Step 2: Mix the Base
In a large bowl, cream together the melted butter and granulated sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 3: Combine Ingredients
Mix in the vanilla extract, flour, Hershey’s syrup, and chopped nuts (if using). Stir until smooth and fully blended.
Step 4: Bake
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 5: Prepare the Icing Base
While the brownies bake, start the icing. In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, combine the butter, cocoa, and 1 tablespoon of milk. Heat until the butter melts and the mixture begins to boil.
Step 6: Make the Icing
In a separate bowl, place the confectioners’ sugar. Pour in the hot cocoa mixture and beat until smooth. Add the vanilla extract, then gradually mix in the remaining milk until the icing reaches a spreadable consistency.
Step 7: Frost the Brownies
Allow the baked brownies to cool for 5–10 minutes. Spread the warm icing evenly over the surface and top with chopped nuts if desired. Let the icing firm up before slicing.
Step 8: Cool and Serve
Once fully cooled, cut into squares and enjoy your rich, chocolatey Hershey’s Syrup Brownies!
