Beer me some stew…

…beef stew that is, and not just with any old beer, but the best dark stout around in my opinion - Guinness. Now sipping a Guinness while eating a hearty beef stew sounds like a complete night, but we’re going to use this Irish variety of stout, as one of our featured ingredients. It gives us…

O’Lucky Libations & Brownies O’Guinness

…that a quality leprachaun would be proud of! After St. Patty’s dinner drink & dessert anyone?

Hi Bananas For Coffee: Thanks for the pingback. I am sorry these didn’t turn out so well for you!! I’m guessing from your post that it had to do with the reduction & addition of the Guinness. Mine reduced down to about 12 oz on stove (from the original 14.9 oz can). I added approximately 9-10 oz of that liquid into my batter slowly combining, till well incorporated, but mine wasn’t liquidy, but it was noticeably thinner than regular brownie batter. It baked up great!I will say the texture was very fudge-like. If you make again, I would reduce the Guinness down maybe even more to 7 oz or so, to avoid liquid texture. Hope they turn out better next time! They really are prefect with an Irish Coffee too! I also added a note into the recipe on my site to clarify the reduction step in case!
