Bailey's chocolate cake with stout caramel and milk chocolate ganache
Cakes

This cake came out of necessity for me…the necessity to make dessert Irish for St. Patrick’s Day. If we are gonna celebrate an Irishmen who drove fake snakes away, we might as well do it with beer, whiskey and cake. <br />The Bailey’s cake is rich and chocolaty and the Guinness caramel has a wonderful malty, coffee flavor that compliments the Irish (coffee) cream. The caramel is actually my favorite part, I would eat it on just about anything. Folding it into a milk chocolate ganache lends a sweeter flavor and a light color…dark chocolate is bitter and, I think, the caramel is bitter enough so this is a good balance.
