Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease with a little oil, or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the Guinness over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and whisk in cocoa powder until smooth. Let cool.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Add the cooled Guinness-cocoa mixture and sour cream, mixing until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
- Bake for 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.
- For the frosting: Beat together the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until smooth.
- Frost the cooled cupcakes with the Guinness cream cheese frosting so that it looks like the foam on a pint of Guinness.
