Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Line the bottom of two 9-inch cake pans with parchment paper, grease and flour the sides. (The parchment paper will make the cake come out much easier).
- Pour the Guinness stout into a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 8 to 10 minutes or until it has reduced to 1 cup. Reducing the Guinness will give the cake a richer, more intense flavor,
- Remove the Guinness stout from the heat and whisk the cocoa powder until smooth. Set aside to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Using a whisk, blend and sift the ingredients together.
- Add the sour cream, oil, eggs, vanilla, and the cocoa mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix on low speed for 30 seconds until the dry ingredients are moist. Increase the speed to medium and beat for 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and beat for another minute.
- Pour the batter into the two prepared pans and place in the center of the preheated oven. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes (a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes should come out clean or with just a few crumbs).
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 5 to 10 minutes then run a knife around the edge of the pans to loosen the cake. Invert the cakes onto a cooling rack and remove the parchment paper. (At this point if you re-invert the cakes onto another rack and let them cool with their tops up, they will retain more height and the tops of the cakes will not stick to the cooling rack.)
- To make the frosting, beat the cream cheese until soft then add the powdered sugar, cornstarch, and Baileys Irish Cream. Beat until creamy and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks form. Use a wide spatula to fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
- Put a dab of frosting on a cake plate and place a cake layer on top of the plate. Spread or pipe half of the frosting on top of the cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top of the frosting. Spread or pipe the rest of the frosting on top of the cake.

Tips:
- Use an oven thermometer to ensure your oven is at the correct temperature. This is especially important for baking cakes, as the temperature can vary depending on your oven.
- To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan before adding the batter. You can also use parchment paper to line the pan.
- If you don't have Irish stout on hand, you can substitute another dark beer. However, Guinness has a unique flavor that really complements the chocolate in this cake.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of Baileys Irish Cream in the frosting to taste. You can also add a splash of coffee or espresso to the frosting for an extra boost of flavor.
- If you don't have time to make the frosting, you can simply dust the cake with powdered sugar or cocoa powder.

This Guinness Chocolate Cake with Baileys Icing is a rich and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of chocolate and stout gives the cake a unique flavor, while the Baileys Irish Cream frosting adds a touch of sweetness and creaminess.
