Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup Irish stout beer (such as Guinness®)
1 cup unsalted butter, sliced
2 cups white sugar

1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ cup butter, softened

I love the unique flavor of this cake. The Guinness gives it a slight bitterness that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the chocolate.
