  • Recipe: Cupcake-Tin Stout Pies

    Cooking with Beer - May 2, 2012

      If you are planning a picnic, want to pack yourself some delicious lunches, or simply need something to make for dinner tonight, these Cupcake-Tin Stout Pies are just the ticket. They are infused with a rich, savory stout flavor that makes a perfect match for the well-spiced beef and delicate pastry. They are hearty but delightfully compact little treats, and you won't be able to eat just one. Any stout or porter will taste great in these, but our Coffee & Donut Stout or Chocolate Maple Porter get the job done especially well.

  • Chocolate Stout Sandwich Cookies With Bourbon Buttercream Filling

    Cooking with Beer - February 29, 2012

    Chocolate has the ability to satisfy a sweet tooth and almost instantly cure a bad day. And while Valentine's Day may be over, there's always room for dessert. These sandwich cookies lie somewhere in between the whoopie pie and the Oreo - soft like a whoopie pie, but with the sweet cream filling of an Oreo. The perfect combination, if you ask us. However, if you prefer more of a marshmallowy filling, just swap out the bourbon buttercream for a fluff-based frosting. They're also pretty tasty with a sweet peanut butter-based filling. We used double chocolate stout for the batter, but any stout will do. This recipe makes about 40 cookies.

  • Chocolate Stout Truffles

    Cooking with Beer - February 15, 2012

    Nothing says Valentine's Day like chocolate, but nothing says "beating a dead horse" like nine zillion Valentine's Day posts. Therefore, we hope you enjoy this belated sweet treat for your long-distance-loved-one-flying-in-on-Friday, your chocolate-fiending roommate, or for yourself on those nights you spend lying in front of the TV eating candy and watching reality TV. Hey, if Peggy Bundy can do it, so can you.

    While this truffle recipe is wildly easy, you'll need a good day or two to really let them set into their chocolatey goodness, so plan on making them hours ahead if you're planning to make them for company. The stout (in this instance, Young's Double Chocolate Stout) can be any old stout, but using a chocolate stout lends a chocolate creaminess that you'll be happy you had.

    This recipe makes about 20 medium-sized truffles.
