Time 1h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups freshly squeezed orange juice, plus 2 tablespoons finely grated zest
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together the softened butter and 1 tablespoon of the cocoa to make a thick paste. Use this paste to paint the inside of the Bundt pan. Set aside.

Add the orange juice, mayonnaise, vinegar and vanilla and mix until just combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Fold in the orange zest.

CHOCOLATE GUINNESS CAKE



Chocolate Guinness Cake image

This is a dark, moist cake that keeps beautifully. It doesn't taste exactly of chocolate or Guinness, but a lovely deep flavor somewhere between the two. I can see the addition of some ginger doing very nicely in this. It comes together in a flash on the stovetop. From Nigella Lawson by way of Kim O'Donnell of the Washington Post.

CHOCOLATE GUINNESS® CAKE



Chocolate Guinness® Cake image

A little trip to Ireland all baked in a delicious chocolate cake with Guinness® flavor. You can serve it with powdered sugar or ganache poured on top. I use this recipe for my groom's cakes but I frost it with a chocolate buttercream then pour ganache evenly over the top. I use raspberries or strawberries to decorate the top for color. It turns out beautiful!

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges will give your cake a brighter, more citrusy flavor. If you only have access to store-bought orange juice, look for a brand that uses 100% orange juice and no added sugar.
  • Zest the oranges before juicing them. This will help release the orange's essential oils and give your cake a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the cake rises evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Chocolate orange Guinness cake is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist chocolate cake, tangy orange frosting, and rich Guinness stout, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this chocolate orange Guinness cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
