Chocolate and Beer Sweet Cubes

I can provide you with a recipe for chocolate and beer sweet cubes, a kind of rich and innovative dessert that pairs the sweetness of chocolate with the unique notes of a dark beer. To add an all-Italian touch, we might think of using an Italian craft dark beer, such as an amber beer or a stout to add more intense flavors.

Ingredients

• 200 g of dark chocolate
• 100 g of butter
• 150 g of sugar
• 3 eggs
• 100 g of flour
• 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
• 150 ml of Italian dark beer (amber or stout)
• A pinch of salt

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
2. In a heat-resistant bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter in a double boiler or in the microwave being careful not to burn it.
3. Once melted, remove from heat and add sugar, mixing well.
4. Incorporate the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
5. Sift the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt and gently fold into the chocolate mixture.
6. Pour the dark beer into the bowl and mix until the batter is smooth.
7. Pour the mixture into a square baking pan that has been previously buttered and floured or lined with parchment paper.
8. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean but with a few crumbs attached, for a result that is just the right amount of moist.
9. Allow to cool completely in the pan, then cut into cubes of desired size.

Curiosity

This dessert combines the world of craft beer with patisserie, creating a blend of flavors that can surprise and delight the palate. The beer not only adds moisture to the preparation but also a unique taste that pairs perfectly with the dark chocolate.
