For a more intense chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips. Room temperature eggs are crucial for a smooth batter and even baking. Do not overbake the brownies; they should be slightly soft in the center for a fudgy texture. Lining the pan with parchment paper makes removal and cleanup effortless. The reduced Guinness concentrate the flavor. Don't skip the skimming step!

Indulge in the decadence of these Guinness-infused brownies. The rich stout adds a depth of flavor, complementing the chocolate for an unforgettable treat. These are intensely fudgey and moist, with a subtle hint of roasted barley that elevates them beyond the ordinary.

Follow The Directions
01
StepGather all ingredients.
02
StepPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on one side.
03
StepHeat Guinness in a medium saucepan over high heat until boiling. Skim any foam from the top. Reduce to a simmer over medium-low heat and cook until liquid has reduced to 1/2 cup, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a heatproof bowl or container. Set aside.
04
StepHeat butter in the same saucepan over medium heat until melted, about 4 minutes. Add sugar and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is thickened and sugar is mostly dissolved, about 2 minutes.
05
StepRemove from heat, add chocolate, and whisk together until smooth, about 1 minute. (Mixture will be slightly grainy.) Gradually add reduced Guinness, whisking constantly, until batter is glossy and dark, about 2 minutes.
06
StepTransfer chocolate mixture to a large bowl, cool slightly, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add eggs slowly, stirring to combine after each egg, about 30 seconds. Add vanilla, stirring until combined, about 30 seconds.
07
StepCombine flour and salt in a medium bowl and whisk together. In two batches, gently stir flour mixture into chocolate mixture until just combined or until no clumps remain, about 1 minute. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pan.
08
StepBake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 1 hour. When cool, remove from pan and place on a cutting board, slice into squares and serve. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to one week.
