Race Car Brownies
Race Car Brownies are outstanding! These rich, decadent brownies are terrific to take to NASCAR races, soccer games, tailgating parties or backyard barbecues. They're made with Hershey's chocolate syrup in the batter and Hershey's chocolate chips in the fudgy icing. These irresistible brownies will get you're motor revving!

BROWNIES:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened (1 stick)
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 12-oz. can Hershey's syrup (see note below)
- 1 cup chopped nuts (I used walnuts)
- 1 cup UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods)
FUDGE ICING:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/3 cup evaporated milk
Instructions
BROWNIES:
- Cream butter and sugar.
- Beat in eggs.
- Add syrup and beat again.
- Add flour slowly; then increase speed until thoroughly mixed.
- Stir in nuts.
- Pour into a greased 12x17” cookie sheet.
- Bake at 350° for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
- Add icing while still hot.
- Cool brownies completely before cutting into bars.
FUDGE ICING:
- Place butter, sugar and milk in a medium saucepan.
- Heat at medium stirring to dissolve ingredients.
- Bring ingredients to a boil and boil for 1 minute.
- Turn off heat.
- Add chocolate chips.
- Stir until smooth.
- Pour hot icing over brownies as soon as they’re baked.
- Spread icing with wet knife.
Notes
NOTE: The consistency of the brownies before baking is more like cake batter.
NOTE: The cans of Hershey’s syrup from the 70s and 80s used to be about 12-ounces. I substituted a 15-oz. bottle of Hershey’s Sundae Dream double chocolate syrup.
