Chocolate Stout Brownies Recipes

GUINNESS STOUT CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 375 F. Line a 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan with nonstick foil.
• Dry Ingredient Mixture : In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
• Chocolate Mixture : Melt butter, bittersweet chocolate, and white chocolate chips in a double-boiler over very low heat, stirring constantly until melted. Remove from heat.
• Mix the Eggs and Sugar : In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Add melted chocolate mixture to the eggs and sugar mixture, beating until combined.
• Beat the reserved dry ingredient mixture into the melted chocolate mixture. Whisk in the Guinness Stout beer by hand. The batter may seem a bit thin.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Drop semisweet chocolate chips evenly on top of batter (some will sink in).
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes (oven temperatures vary) on center rack in the oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Let the brownies cool, uncovered, to room temperature.

STOUT BROWNIES WITH BAILEYS® CHOCOLATE GANACHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick aluminum foil.
• Whisk flour, cocoa powder, and salt together in a medium-sized bowl until evenly combined. Set aside.
• Fill the bottom of a double boiler halfway with water and bring to a simmer, about 5 minutes; reduce heat to lowest setting. Add white chocolate chips, bittersweet chocolate, and butter to the top of the double boiler and heat, stirring constantly, until melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Beat eggs and sugar together in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add melted chocolate mixture, beating until combined. Beat in flour mixture. Whisk stout beer in to create a thin batter. Drop semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly on top, allowing some to sink in.
• Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Allow brownies to cool for 1 hour at room temperature.
• Pour Irish cream liqueur into a small saucepan and heat until simmering, about 3 minutes; do not boil. Place dark chocolate chips in a bowl and pour heated Irish cream liqueur on top. Stir until evenly melted. Allow ganache to cool and thicken, about 10 minutes.
• Pour ganache over the cooled brownies and spread evenly over the top. Refrigerate brownies until ganache is set, at least 1 hour.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE STOUT BEER BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Line a 13x9x2 baking pan with aluminum foil, letting foil extend 2 inches beyond each short side of pan.
• In large bowl, whisk together stout and cocoa powder until blended and smooth. Whisk in sugar, butter, vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time. Blend well.
• Add flour and salt; whisk until batter is smooth. Stir in chocolate chips. Spread mixture in prepared pan, leveling surface with a spatula. Bake 42 to 45 minutes in preheated oven, until top is shiny and dry, and a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Remove from oven and let cool completely in pan on rack.
• Lift out brownie from pan by foil ends; transter to cutting board. Cut lengthwise into four strips and crosswise into 8 pieces, making 32 brownies.
