Time 1h5m

Yield 24-30 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup Guinness stout
2/3 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder, sifted
1 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon table salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
2 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup unsalted butter
4 cups confectioners' sugar
1 pinch table salt
3 tablespoons irish cream (Bailey's or Carolan's)
1 tablespoon milk
green sprinkles

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F Grease 24-30 cupcake cups, or fill with paper liners.
  • In a saucepan, heat the butter, Guinness, cocoa and brown sugar, whisking often, until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Into the work bowl of a stand mixer (or into a large mixing bowl), sift together salt, flour, white sugar and baking soda. Add the cooled Guinness mixture and beat on medium for 1 minute. Add eggs and sour cream and beat on medium for 2 minutes or until smooth.
  • Divide the batter evenly amongst the cupcake cups. Bake in preheated oven 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean. Cool in pan 20 minutes, then remove and transfer to a cooling rack until completely cooled.
  • Meanwhile, in (cleaned) work bowl of stand mixer, cream butter until very light and fluffy. Add salt, and slowly add confectioners sugar. Do not run the mixer above low, or the sugar will spray all over your kitchen. Add a couple of spoonsful at a time until it has all been absorbed into the butter. Add Bailey's and milk until spreadable consistency is achieved.
  • Frost cupcakes with Bailey's frosting. Sprinkle with green jimmies.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use a good quality Guinness stout.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To make sure your cupcakes are evenly baked, use a toothpick to check the center of a cupcake. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cupcakes are done.
  • For a smoother frosting, make sure the butter and cream cheese are at room temperature before you start mixing them.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes.

These Guinness cupcakes with Baileys frosting are a delicious and indulgent treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these cupcakes a try!
