Let me start by saying I love Irish car bombs. On my twenty-first birthday one of my sorority sisters bought one for me and I've loved them ever since. In general, I'm a fan of most stout beers whether they are brewed over coffee, chocolate, vanilla beans, etc; I like the full-bodied taste. Guinness is not one of my favorites, but whoever thought to combine it with a shot of Bailey's and a touch of Jameson is a genius.
As always, I'd been eying a few new cake recipes, so when my mom needed a birthday cake for her office I jumped at the chance. We settled on a Guinness Chocolate Cake with Bailey's Buttercream frosting. And oh my goodness, did it turn out deliciously. Try this recipe!
