These cupcakes sound fantastic... moist and delicious, with a dark, earthy taste.
Plus, if you know any guys that buy into that macho stereotype, refusing to do anything domestic because it erodes their estimation of their own masculinity, trick them into making these Guiness cupcakes. Beer, right?
Big city Little Kitchen has this fantastic recipe that sounds so compelling, I'm halfway to the beer store now.
"Despite the addition of Guinness, these cakes are not at all bitter; instead, the beer adds richness and moisture, and balances the sweetness of the sugar."
Oh yeah. Yeah, I'm down with that. Richness and moisture are my bread and butter. No, moisture is by bread and rich- wait, no, richness is definitely my bread. Anyway, richness and moisture are my various breads and butters*.
The recipe is simple and full of tasty ingredients:
"Cake
* 1 cup Guinness
* 1 stick, plus 1 tb, unsalted butter
* 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
* 2 cups dark brown sugar
* 3/4 cup sour cream
* 2 eggs
* 1 tb vanilla extract
* 2 cups flour
* 2 1/2 tsp baking soda
"
Sour cream and Guiness sounds like a fantastic combination for a cupcake!
