Guinness Beer Cupcakes
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 bottle beer *at room temp*, I used an 11.2 oz bottle of Guinness Draught
- 1 stick butter melted
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Line 24 muffin cups with liners (I got 18 full size cupcakes plus 24 mini cupcakes).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa, sugar, flours & baking soda.
- In another large bowl, combine the beer *at room temp*, melted butter & vanilla. Beat in eggs until well combined. Mix in sour cream until smooth and incorporated. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.
- Divide the batter equally between muffin tins, filling each 3/4 full. Bake about 24 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool before turning out.
- You may frost as desired but I found these perfect with a dusting of powdered sugar.
