Guinness Brownies

or as i will make them in the near future

Murphy's Brownies: you can use a dark beer, a Stout might be better then a Draft, but i will know more when i try it.

4 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
8 oz. bittersweet chocolate
4 oz. white chocolate
6 T. butter
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup cocoa
1 1/4 cup Guinness

so you melt the butter in a pan on the stove along with the chocolate bars. then you mix in the sugar, while or after melting, you can take it off the burner, then the four eggs,
followed by, if you want to sift, if you have the time and a sifter, the flour and the cocoa, then right before you dump it in the greased baking dish, you mix in the beer. i usually pour the beer in a measuring cup before i do all this because guinness foams alot. then you put it in the oven at 375 F for 20-25 minutes, wait for the toothpick to come out clean.

i have proportioned this recipe to use a whole beer, but i don't have that with me so you will have to do it yourself, if you like. i have also done half cream cheese half butter, and that was super good. also i want to try raspberries, but there are none here in dublin so maybe in a year. so good luck to all you bakers out there. i usually just put a little powdered sugar on top. but the last week of classes in may 2006, i was eating a guinness brownie with walnuts, chocolate sauce, and vanilla ice cream for breakfast. :)
