CHOCOLATE STOUT CUPCAKES
Ingredients:

1 box DCD Chocolate Baking Mix
2 eggs
6 oz stout beer (recommended: Guinness)
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 stick butter
2/3 cup DCD Dark Chocolate Baking Bits (included in Baking Mix)

Sweetened whipped cream, for garnish
DCD Chardonnay Caramel Sauce, for garnish
DCD Dark Chocolate, shaved, for garnish

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cupcake pan with paper liners, and spray lightly with a non-stick baking spray.

2. Pour chocolate baking mix into a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer, begin mixing, pouring in the eggs, stout beer, and sour cream. Mix for approximately 30 seconds.

3. Place butter and chocolate together in a microwave-safe bowl, and melt at 20-second intervals, until completely melted and smooth. Pour into mixer, and mix for an additional 30 seconds.

4. Fill the cupcake liners up about 2/3 of the way (you will have leftover batter, use this to bake another pan). Bake for 16-17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out almost clean, with a little batter stuck to it.

5. Let cupcakes cool completely. Swirl some Chardonnay Caramel sauce into a batch of sweetened whipped cream, and dollop onto each cupcake. Garnish with some shaved Dark Chocolate, and enjoy!
