Guinness Chocolate Cake

This is a super moist cake, with a delicious stout finish on your tongue, it goes perfectly with chocolate. We made a Guinness chocolate sauce to pour over it, and topped it with whipped cream.. real easy to eat. It tastes best warm, but any way you can get it is fine! No machinery necessary, simply use a pot and a whisk. Easy.



Over low heat, in a medium saucepan melt:

2 sticks unsalted butter
1C Guinness stout

When it has melted whisk in:
3/4C unsweetened Dutch processed cocoa powder.
Take off the heat and cool a little.

Then in to the same saucepan whisk in:
3/4C sour cream
2 eggs.

Then whisk in:
2C all purpose flour
1 1/2C sugar
1/2T baking soda
3/4t salt. Mix until combined. Then pour in to individual greased molds.
Bake at 350F for about 12-15 minutes.

For the sauce:

In a saucepan add 1C cream. Simmer and pour over 8oz 60% chocolate. Stir until melted, then add 1/4C Guinness. Pour over the cake.
