How to Prepare Chocolate Stout Cupcakes [Vegan]

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a muffin tin with parchment cups.
  2. Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Combine the materials and make a well in the middle of the bowl.
  3. Have the liquid ingredients measured and ready to go before you start to pour. Pour both the beer and vinegar/oil into the well. Stir well - no stand mixer required!
  4. Fill the parchment cups about 2/3 of the way full - these cupcakes really puff up! You should be able to get at least 12 cupcakes from this recipe. Bake them for 20-25 minutes.
  5. You don't have to, but I rotated my pan after ten minutes of baking. Hey, Erin McKenna does it, so I'm doing it too!
  6. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely.
  7. For the icing: cream the shortening, Irish cream, and powdered sugar in a large mixing bowl. It should not have a super-stiff consistency, but it should be able to hold its shape. If it seems too loose, add some more powdered sugar.
  8. Using a piping bag or a knife, frost these bad boys! You'll be so glad that you did!
