3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and hot fudge sauce, ensuring an even distribution.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

9. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of ice cream or an extra drizzle of hot fudge.
