Eat Your Way Into St Patricks Day Irish Stout Pudding With Whisky Cream

What better way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day than with a rich, indulgent Irish stout pudding? We've got the ultimate recipe to make your celebration even more delicious!

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup Guinness Stout
  • 1 Tablespoon molasses
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 large eggs
  • pinch kosher salt
  • 6 ounces dark chocolate chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and butter 5-7 ramekins (I used ½ cup ramekins and got 7 pudding cakes; if using larger ramekins, you'll have fewer). Arrange the ramekins on a baking sheet.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine butter and molasses. Melt the butter over low heat, stirring until fully melted.
  3. Bring the Guinness to a boil over medium heat and simmer until reduced to ⅓ cup, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Add the chocolate, sugar, vanilla, and salt to the melted butter, stirring until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  5. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Gradually mix in the chocolate mixture and stir until fully combined. Then, add the reduced Guinness and mix.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the ramekins and place them on the middle rack of the oven.
  7. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the edges begin to crack, while the center remains soft and shiny.
  8. Serve warm with whipped cream, ice cream, or caramel sauce.
  9. For an extra touch, sprinkle a little fleur de sel on top if desired.

Happy St Patricks Day!
