What's a better treat than with this Irish-inspired cookie recipe?! The original recipe from the mastermind behind A Beautiful Bite said these cookies "will have your Irish (or non-Irish) eyes smiling." That sounds about right to us! The three flavors - chocolate, Guinness, and Baileys Irish cream - go perfectly together. Sign up to IrishCentral's newsletter to stay up-to-date with everything Irish! For the chocolate Guinness cookies: For the Irish buttercream frosting: Preheat oven to 350°F.
Cream together the butter, sugar, and eggs, add Guinness, and beat in a mixer, on medium, until even and smooth. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture by the tablespoon to the sugar, egg, and Guinness mixture.
Mix at a medium speed until it comes together. Refrigerate for one hour. Drop a heaped tablespoon onto cookie sheets.
Bake for 13 minutes. Take them out of the oven and let them rest. Place all the frosting ingredients into a mixer and beat until light and fluffy.
