Beer Cake for St-Patty's!!


Let’s be honest, St-Patrick’s Day is another excuse for us crazy college kids to go out, party and drink ‘til we drop. Now, I’m all for a little fun once in a while, but I always play it safe. So I’m going to make sure that this St-Patrick’s Day my friends have some food in their system, but keep their St-Patty’s day insobriety in tow!
This recipe is one I tried a year ago at a St-Patrick’s day themed pot-luck dinner (kinda lame, I know)
This cake is chocolatey, rich and moist, yet the best ingredient is an unexpected one: beer!
Surprisingly, chocolate and beer have a lot of rich, husky flavor notes in common, and combined with flour and sugar, the two are a match made in heaven!
This recipe is from Nigella Lawson’s website. I love when cool recipes from famous chefs are posted on the net! So much time can be wasted looking through countless cookbooks when you’re really just looking for that one perfect dish!


I hope you love this cake as much I do!
Party hard (and don’t paint yourself in too much green paint- I know from experience it’s quite hard to remove)
