Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the chocolate stout beer, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
  6. Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with the batter.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the cupcakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While the cupcakes are cooling, prepare the bittersweet ganache by melting the semi-sweet chocolate and heavy cream together in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water.
  10. Stir until smooth and glossy, then remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
  11. Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, spread a spoonful of the bittersweet ganache over the top of each cupcake.
  12. Allow the ganache to set for about 20 minutes before serving.
  13. Enjoy your delicious Chocolate Stout Cupcakes with Bittersweet Ganache!
