Pro Tips for the Best Hershey’s Syrup Brownies
- Use High-Quality Hershey’s Syrup – The chocolate syrup is the key ingredient for that rich, fudgy texture, so use a fresh bottle for the best results.
- Don’t Overmix the Batter – Mix just until combined to keep the brownies soft and moist.
- Line Your Pan with Parchment Paper – This makes it easier to remove the brownies and prevents sticking.
- Let the Brownies Cool Before Cutting – Warm brownies might be too soft, so let them set completely before slicing.
- Store in an Airtight Container – This keeps them soft and fresh for up to 4 days.
- Make It Extra Decadent – Drizzle with chocolate ganache, add chocolate chips, or top with ice cream for an even richer treat!
