  • ½cupunsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1teaspoonbaking soda

  • 1teaspoonbaking powder

  • ¼teaspoonsalt

  • ¾cupIrish stout beer (such as Guinness®)

  • ¾cupbuttermilk

  • ½cupbutter, melted and cooled

  • 1cupheavy cream

  • 1tablespoonpowdered sugar

  • 1tablespoonwhiskey

Cooking Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt). Fit the bottom with a trimmed sheet of parchment paper and lightly grease the parchment.

  2. Whisk flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.

  3. Whisk beer, buttermilk, and butter together in a separate, small bowl. Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients all at once. Whisk just until the batter is smooth; pour the batter into the prepared pan.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until the top gently springs back when touched and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

  5. While the cake is still warm, run a thin metal spatula around the sides of the pan to loosen it; leave in the pan to cool for 5 minutes. Gently remove the cake and let cool completely on a rack before removing the sheet of parchment.

  6. Whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and whiskey together in a small bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks have formed, about 3 minutes. Serve alongside the cake.
