Equipment

  • 2 8" Round Cake Pans

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Boxes Devils Food Cake Mix I used Pillsbury but any will work
  • 2¾ Cups Guinness Or other Stout beer

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 °F
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix and beer. DO NOT add the egg or oil listed on the box. These are not necessary for the recipe.
  • Mix beer and cake mix until just combined. Separate equally into two greased cake pans. Bake according to package instructions.
  • Allow the cakes to cool before frosting.
  • Frost the cakes with your favorite frosting - homemade or store bought. I recommend my Whipped Ganache and Irish Cream Caramel. Recipes linked above!
