Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F. Line your cake pan with aluminium foil and grease it, or grease your foil tray.
- Put the butter, syrup, dark brown sugar, stout, ginger, cinnamon and ground cloves into a pan and melt gently over a low heat.
- Take off the heat and whisk in the flour and baking soda. You will need to be patient and whisk thoroughly to get rid of any lumps.
- Whisk the sour cream and eggs together in a measuring jug and then beat into the gingerbread mixture, whisking again to get a smooth batter.
- Pour this into your cake/foil pan, and bake for about 45 minutes; when it's ready it will be gleamingly risen at the centre, and coming away from the pan at the sides.
- Let the gingerbread cool before cutting into slices or squares.
GUINNESS-GINGERBREAD CUPCAKES
I made a fool of myself when I met Claudia Fleming, who was for many years a noted pastry chef in New York City. But I couldn't help myself-I flipped out whenever I tasted her desserts. Her multiflavored combinations managed to perfectly balance familiar, everyday ingredients with sophisticated presentations. Every time I ran into her, I'd gush about how wonderful her desserts were as I watched her slowly backing away from this clearly unbalanced fan. I was always intrigued by her combination of gingerbread with rich, malty stout and was inspired to create a cupcake using the same blend of flavors. I add a bright-tasting lime frosting which complements the spicy cake. If you make these, you're likely to have a few deranged fans, too. Consider yourself warned.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- To make the cupcakes, in a very large saucepan, bring the stout, molasses, and oil to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat and whisk in the baking sodauntil dissolved. (The mixture will foam up, then settle down.) Stir in the brown sugar, then let cool until tepid.
- Into a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
- Whisk the eggs into the stout mixture, then whisk in the flour mixture just until incorporated. Don't overmix. Gently stir in the minced candied ginger.
- Divide the batter among the cupcake liners and bake until the cupcakes feel just set in the center, 22 to 24 minutes. Let cool completely.
- To make the frosting, in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth, about 10 seconds. Decrease the speed to low and, with the mixer running, gradually add half of the powdered sugar. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl as needed to make sure the ingredients are being incorporated. Add the lime juice, then add the remaining powdered sugar. Once the sugar is incorporated, add the milk. Beat the frosting on high speed until completely smooth and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Taste, and add a few more drops of lime juice, if desired.
- Transfer the frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip. Remove the cupcakes from the muffin tin. Pipe rosettes of frosting in the center of each cupcake. (If you don't have a pastry bag, you can spoon a mound of frosting decoratively in the center.) Garnish each with strips of candied citrus peel or a piece of candied ginger.
- The cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days at room temperature.
- For kids, feel free to use apple cider in place of the stout.
