Ingredients

2 tablespoon butter
1 ½ ounce dark chocolate, broken into pieces
1 medium egg
3 tablespoon stout, preferably guinness
3 tablespoon brown sugar
4 tablespoon all-purpose flour
¼ tablespoon baking powder
pinch of salt
3 tablespoon confectioners sugar
1 ½ tablespoon cream cheese
½ tablespoon white sprinkles

Directions

Place the butter and chocolate in a 1 ½ cup mug and microwave until melted, 10 to 20 seconds. Add the egg to the mug and beat with a fork until combined. Stir though the Guinness, then add the sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt and beat again until smooth. Cook in the microwave for 2 minutes at 600W, 1 minute 45 seconds at 800W or 1 minute 30 seconds at 1000W. Leave to cool.
Beat the sugar and cream cheese together until smooth, then spread over the cooled cake, swirling with the back of a spoon. Scatter with the sprinkles to serve.
