Beer Cupcakes

¾ cup unsweetened cocoa
2 cups sugar
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 ounce bottle beer *at room temp* (I used an 11.2 bottle of Guinness Draught)
1 stick butter, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
¾ cup sour cream

Preparation

Step 1 Preheat oven to 350 F. Line 24 muffin cups with liners (I got 18 full size cupcakes plus 24 mini cupcakes).
Step 2 In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa, sugar, flours & baking soda.
Step 3 In another large bowl, combine the beer *at room temp*, melted butter & vanilla. Beat in eggs until well combined. Mix in sour cream until smooth and incorporated. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.
Step 4 Divide the batter equally between muffin tins, filling each 3/4 full. Bake about 24 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool before turning out.
Step 5 You may frost as desired but I found these perfect with a dusting of powdered sugar.
