½ cup sour cream
2 eggs
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 ⅕ cups all-purpose flour
2 ½ tsp baking soda

In a large bowl beat the sour cream with the eggs and vanilla. Add your brown, buttery, beery mixture. Whisk in the flour and baking soda.
Pour the cake batter into your prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes to an hour. Cool completely.
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
8 oz cream cheese
1 ¼ confectioner’s sugar
½ cups whipping cream
Whip the cream cheese until smooth. Add the confectioner’s sugar and beat until well combined.
Add the whipping cream and beat again until frosting is thick. Add more sugar or cream as needed to get the right consistency.
Ice the top of the black cake so that it resembles the frothy top of the famous pint.
