Nigella Lawson's chocolate Guinness cake is a delightful dessert that combines the bitterness of Guinness with rich chocolate. The recipe emphasizes a balance of flavors, further enhanced by a tangy frosting made from cream cheese. To match the spirit of St. Patrick's Day, the article also shares delicious recipes such as a skillet-braised chicken with greens and olives, and a vibrant sheet-pan roasted salmon with pea pesto. These dishes are designed to use up greens and enhance seasonal flavors, encouraging creativity with ingredient variations.
The cake will be chocolaty, of course, and it will be Guinness-y, with the smooth bitterness of the beer balancing the sweetness.
With a mix of powdered sugar, cream cheese, and heavy cream, the frosting adds a refreshing sourness that pairs perfectly with the cake.
For celebrating St. Patrick's Day, the recipe offers dishes packed with greens that can utilize any herbs starting to sag in the fridge.
Melissa Clark's skillet-braised chicken with greens is a five-star formula: bone-in chicken paired with kale or Swiss chard and puckery lemon.
