CHOCOLATE AND GUINNESS® CAKE



Chocolate and Guinness® Cake image

This easy recipe is an adaptation of the classic, but is even easier to make. Don't be alarmed by the Guinness® - it's simply used to develop the texture of the cake by making it extra dense and moist. This cake almost ends up pudding-like, and goes down a treat when served with cream or ice cream. This proves that a bakery-quality cake can be made so easily at home!

Butter for pan
1 cup Guinness stout
10 tablespoons (1 stick plus 2 tablespoons) unsalted butter
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 cups superfine sugar
3/4 cup sour cream
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar

  • In a small bowl, combine sour cream, eggs and vanilla; mix well. Add to Guinness mixture. Add flour and baking soda, and whisk again until smooth. Pour into buttered pan, and bake until risen and firm, 45 minutes to one hour. Place pan on a wire rack and cool completely in pan.

Tips:

  • Use good quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate used in this cake is crucial to the final flavor. Use a high-quality dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa solids.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Use fresh Guinness: Fresh Guinness is essential for this cake. If you do not have fresh Guinness, you can use a stout beer, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This chocolate orange Guinness cake is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a rich chocolate flavor and a hint of orange. The Guinness gives the cake a slightly bitter flavor that balances out the sweetness of the chocolate. The orange zest adds a bright, citrusy note that complements the chocolate and Guinness flavors perfectly. This cake is sure to be a hit with chocolate lovers of all ages.
