Guinness Chocolate Cake by DyshApp: 4:48pm On Mar 13, 2023
This rich Guinness chocolate cake is made with reduced dark stout beer for deep flavour. Topped with ultra creamy chocolate Guinness cream cheese frosting.
You just need 2 Guinness stout beers and some basic baking ingredients.

Let's quickly review the other ingredients you'll be mixing with the reduced Guinness and why each is crucial to your results:

All-Purpose Flour: The structural base of this recipe. Cake flour is great for vanilla cake, but when combined with ultra-light cocoa powder, it's too fine for this cake. Stick to all-purpose here.

Unsweetened Natural Cocoa Powder: Do not use dutch-process cocoa powder. If you're interested, see dutch-process vs natural cocoa powder for an in- depth explanation.

Granulated Sugar: Sweetens this cake.

Baking Soda + Baking Powder: This is a fairly dense cake, but these 2 leavening agents provide the lift. • Espresso Powder: Espresso powder accentuates the chocolate and Guinness flavours.

Salt & Vanilla Extract: Flavor and more flavour!

Vegetable Oil: Cocoa powder is a particularly drying ingredient, so oil is needed to ensure the cake is moist.

Eggs: Eggs add structure and bind the ingredients together.

Sour Cream + Buttermilk: While you could use just one or the other, you'll have the best success with a combination of both, which makes for a moist and soft yet sturdy crumb.

Whisk together the dry ingredients, whisk together the wet ingredients, then pour the wet mixture into the dry and whisk to combine. The last step for the cake batter is to add in the hot reduced Guinness. We'll use 1/2 cup (120ml) of hot reduced Guinness in the cake batter and set aside the remaining to cool completely for the frosting.

Why use hot liquid? Hot liquid helps the cocoa powder "bloom," drawing out its rich flavour. We use hot coffee in this chocolate cake and these cream-filled cupcakes, but today we're using reduced Guinness instead.
