This fantastic recipe is brought to you by Hot Chocolate Hits on YouTube and on the website hotchocolatehits , thanks for sharing this recipe with us
Here below is a excerpt on this cake from the website plus a list of the ingredients you will need
You can barely taste the alcohol, it simply adds an unbeatable moisture that makes cutting into the cake enjoyable. Yes, enjoyable. You may substitute coffee in place of the Guinness- but that kind of defeats the purpose of a Guinness chocolate cake.
Serves: 10-12
Ingredients
- 200g (around 1 cup) butter, salted or unsalted works
For the cake:
- 2 cups Guinness (440 mL can)
- 2 cups sugar (I like Demerara but granulated or brown- or a combination works)
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- 2 whole eggs
- ⅔ cup natural yogurt (can use Greek yogurt, buttermilk or sour cream as a substitute)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2½ tsp baking soda
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
For the frosting:
- ¼ cup (4 tbsp) unsalted butter
- 135 g (4-5 oz) cream cheese
- 2½ cups powdered/confectioners’ sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
