How to cook deliciously - Guinness Chocolate Cake

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan, and line the bottom with parchment. Set the pan aside.

2. Stage

In a large saucepan, heat the beer and butter until the butter is melted. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and whisk in the sugar and cocoa until blended. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream and vanilla. Whisk the egg mixture into the beer mixture. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Whisk the flour mixture into the beer mixture until smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

3. Stage

Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool the cake completely to room temperature in the pan on a wire rack. Remove the cake from the pan, and place the cake on a platter or cake stand. Editor’s Tip: Run a butter knife or mini offset spatula around the perimeter of the cake once it’s out of the oven. This will make it easier to remove the cake from the pan later.

4. Stage

In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the cream cheese until it’s fluffy. Add the confectioners’ sugar and cream, and beat everything until it’s smooth (do not overbeat). Frost only the top of the cake. Using a mini offset spatula or butter knife, mimic the foamy head on a beer by adding swoops to the frosting. Refrigerate the leftovers.
