Guinness Chocolate Cake
I was supposed to make to Guinness glazed ribs then life happened. My Guinness can has been sitting pretty next to wine in the fridge. The wine was supposed to make some chicken but did not. Several days later, way after St. Patrick’s day, I decided to make myself a Guinness Chocolate Cake.
PS: I broke a lot of rules while baking the cake. My excuse was cooking is an art. Get creative.

For the frosting:
The original recipe called for cheese cream frosting. I used some left over whipping cream and green food color(no idea if was the right shade)
- 8
PS: Most cake beer/alcohol recipes will require you to melt the butter with the beer over a source of heat so that the alcohol evaporates. I did none of that. i wanted to feel the beer flavor in the cake. Also, I did not use sour cream or cream cheese frosting

Guinness Chocolate Cake Guinness Chocolate Cake
We always drank Guinness in London, and it must be draught from the pubs. I was missing London so I was really excited to try this recipe when I saw it. Really happy with the results and guess what, the cake tastes even better after sitting in the fridge overnight because it allows for the flavor to come through. But really, you can hardly detect the stout and it has got just the right amount of tang!Credit: Nigella Lawson

Tiramisu Cream Filled Chocolate Cakes Tiramisu Cream Filled Chocolate Cakes
This is a special cake, I made it in special pans but it can be adapted to 24 standard cupcakes, which would be filled and glazed or 2 – 9 inches cake pans with a generous filling and glazing the top. The cupcakes baking time would be about the same. The cake layers about 20 to 25 minutes. This is well worth the time for a truly beautiful delicious cake!

Chocolate Cake Chocolate Cake
I made this cake imagining a cake which was made in a cartoon on Valentine. If you know what I am talking about, please give it a try.The amount of sugar for the pound cake is for the cake to be slightly sweetened. Adjust the amount to your liking If you make a cut in the dough before baking the cake, the cake would be baked nicely. Please make the time to chill after putting the creamy chocolate in between the cake to be at least 3 hours. Unless it will fall apart when you take it out. Recipe by Sarichirusan

Made this few week ago we frozen the slices and had 60g each every Saturday and Sunday with ice cream. This time I used butter instead of margarine and added 1 egg plus used large instead of medium. This cake is soft with crunchy top and sides. And everyone who tried it had it eat whole portion in 1 go as apposed to wanting to save some.
