Chocolate And Guinness® Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup Irish stout beer (such as Guinness(R))
1 cup butter
2 cups white sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons sour cream
2 eggs
1 splash vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9-inch cake pan with parchment paper; grease parchment paper.
Combine stout beer and butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat; heat until butter melts and beer looks glossy, 3 to 5 minutes.
Remove beer mixture from heat; whisk in sugar and 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons cocoa powder until dissolved and smooth. Whisk in 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sour cream. Mix in eggs and vanilla extract until well blended. Add baking soda; mix in flour gradually until batter thickens and no lumps remain, about 5 minutes.
Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool cake before serving, at least 4 hours.
