\n
Makes approx. 24 cupcakes<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Ingredients<\/h3>\n
\n

For the Guinness chocolate cupcakes:<\/em><\/p>\n

    \n
  • 1 cup stout (Guinness)<\/li>\n
  • 16 tbsp. unsalted butter<\/li>\n
  • \u00be cup unsweetened cocoa powder<\/li>\n
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour<\/li>\n
  • 2 cups sugar<\/li>\n
  • 1\u00bd tsp. baking soda<\/li>\n
  • \u00be tsp. salt<\/li>\n
  • 2 large eggs<\/li>\n
  • 2\/3 cup sour cream<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    For the Bailey\u2019s ganache filling:<\/em><\/p>\n

      \n
    • 8 oz. bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped<\/li>\n
    • 2\/3 cup heavy cream<\/li>\n
    • 2 tbsp. butter, at room temperature<\/li>\n
    • 2 tsp. Bailey\u2019s Irish cream (or Jameson whiskey)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      For the Bailey\u2019s buttercream frosting:<\/em><\/p>\n

        \n
      • 8 tbsp. unsalted butter, at room temperature<\/li>\n
      • 3-4 cups confectioners\u2019 sugar, sifted<\/li>\n
      • 4-8 tbsp. Bailey\u2019s Irish cream<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Directions<\/h3>\n
          \n
        • To make the cupcakes, preheat the oven to 350\u00b0 F. \u00a0Line two cupcake pans with paper liners. \u00a0Combine the stout and butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. \u00a0Add the cocoa powder and whisk until smooth. \u00a0Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.<\/li>\n
        • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. \u00a0In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the eggs and sour cream to blend. \u00a0Add the stout-butter mixture and beat just to combine. \u00a0Mix in the dry ingredients on low speed just until incorporated. \u00a0Divide the batter evenly between the cupcake liners, filling them about 2\/3 to \u00be full. \u00a0Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 17 minutes. \u00a0Allow to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/li>\n
        • To make the ganache filling, place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. \u00a0Heat the cream in a small saucepan until simmering, then pour it over the chocolate. \u00a0Let sit for one minute and then whisk until smooth. \u00a0If the chocolate is not completely melted, place the bowl over a double boiler or give it a very short burst in the microwave (15-20 seconds). \u00a0Add the butter and Bailey\u2019s and stir until combined.<\/li>\n
        • Set aside to let the ganache cool until it is thick enough to be piped. \u00a0(You can use the refrigerator to speed the cooling process, but be sure to stir every 10 minutes or so to ensure even cooling.) \u00a0Meanwhile, cut out a portion from the center of the cupcake using the cone method (a small paring knife works best for this). \u00a0Once the ganache has reached the correct consistency, transfer it to a piping bag fitted with a wide tip and pipe it into the cupcakes.<\/li>\n
        • To make the frosting, place the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. \u00a0Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. \u00a0Gradually add the powdered sugar until it is all incorporated. \u00a0Mix in the Bailey\u2019s until smooth. \u00a0Add more if necessary until the frosting has reached a good consistency for piping or spreading. \u00a0Frost the cupcakes as desired.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
