Time 1h5m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup Irish stout beer (such as Guinness®)
9 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups dark brown sugar
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
¾ cup sour cream
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons Irish cream liqueur (such as Baileys®), or more to taste
2 teaspoons Irish whiskey (such as Jameson®), or to taste
3 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  • Combine stout beer and butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Heat until butter melts, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in brown sugar and cocoa.
  • Whisk sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract in a bowl; pour into the saucepan and mix until a smooth batter forms.
  • Stir flour and baking soda together. Fold into the batter. Divide batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Leave in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Make frosting while the cupcakes cool. Place butter in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in Irish cream and whiskey on low speed. Gradually spoon in confectioners' sugar, mixing on low speed until frosting is smooth and creamy.
  • Spread frosting over cupcakes.

I made these cupcakes last weekend and they were so easy to make. The frosting was a little bit runny, but I just added a little bit more powdered sugar and it was perfect. The cupcakes were moist and flavorful and the frosting was sweet and creamy.
