I thought brownies were just chocolate... now I know for all your smarty
pants out there that there are some that are not chocolate at all, but in
the chocolate family what exactly is meant by Chocolate "Fudge" brownies?

I've always considered brownies to be chocolate -- imo, there's always a
modifier when talking about non-chocolate brownies, e.g. coffee blonde
brownies or, indeed, blondies.

Chocolate fudge brownies, to me, would speak to consistency -- a fudgy
consistency, as opposed to a cake-like consistency.

Probably has some fudge chunks in it.

I looked at many Chocolate Fudge Brownies recipes on the internet and in
cookbooks and none of them had fudge in them that's why I am confused.

That makes sense that the brownie would be moister and chewier than the cake
like counter parts. Thanks for chiming in!

Thanks for the recipes. This what Wikipedia says regarding Blondies, "In
American cuisine, the Blondie is a bar cookie similar to the chocolate
brownie but made with brown sugar and no cocoa." That was my understanding
the Blondies had no chocolate in them. So the below recipe should be called
"Coffee Almond Chocolate Brownies."

The chocolate chips don't make them brownies in the same way chocolate chips
don't make chocolate chip cookies chocolate cookies.
