Description

Guinness and cocoa bring rich flavor to this eggless chocolate Bundt cake with whiskey whipped cream that's perfect for St. Patrick's Day entertaining.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup Irish stout beer (such as Guinness®)
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1 tablespoon whiskey

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt). Fit the bottom with a trimmed sheet of parchment paper and lightly grease the parchment.
2 Whisk flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.
3 Whisk beer, buttermilk, and butter together in a separate, small bowl. Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients all at once. Whisk just until the batter is smooth; pour the batter into the prepared pan.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until the top gently springs back when touched and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
5 While the cake is still warm, run a thin metal spatula around the sides of the pan to loosen it; leave in the pan to cool for 5 minutes. Gently remove the cake and let cool completely on a rack before removing the sheet of parchment.
6 Whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and whiskey together in a small bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks have formed, about 3 minutes. Serve alongside the cake.
