Omigosh this is good! Not your typical Irish food, but then again, Guinness is not your typical beer!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Guinness shopping list
- 1 cup dark molasses (not blackstrap) shopping list
- ½ teaspoon baking soda shopping list
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder shopping list
- 2 tablespoons ground ginger shopping list
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon shopping list
- ¼ teaspoon ground clove shopping list
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg shopping list
- Pinch of ground cardamom shopping list
- 3 large eggs shopping list
- 1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar shopping list
- 1 cup granulated sugar shopping list
- 3 cups all-purpose flour shopping list
- ¾ cup vegetable oil shopping list
- Confectioners sugar for dusting shopping list
- 10-inch (10- to 12-cup) bundt pan shopping list
- Topping: Unsweetened whipped cream shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Generously butter bundt pan and dust with flour, knocking out excess.
- Bring Guinness and molasses to a boil in a large saucepan and remove from heat.
- Whisk in baking soda. Soda will cause the mixture to foam up. Cool mixture to room temperature.
- Sift together flour, baking powder and spices in a large bowl.
- Whisk together eggs and sugars separately from dry ingredients.
- Whisk in oil with the eggs and sugar, then add molasses mixture.
- Add wet ingredients to flour mixture and whisk until just combined.
- Pour batter into bundt pan and rap pan sharply on counter to eliminate air bubbles.
- Bake in middle of oven until a tester comes out with just a few moist crumbs adhering , about 50 minutes.
- Cool cake in pan for five minutes. Turn out onto rack and cool completely.
- Serve cake, dusted with confectioners sugar and/or with whipped cream. Gingerbread is better if made a day ahead of serving. It will keep three days, covered, at room temperature.
