Line a muffin tray with 12 large black muffin cases
Place the flour, cocoa & sugar in a large bowl and mix together
In a separate bowl melt the butter (1min in the microwave should be fine)
Add the egg and mix thoroughly
Next add the Guinness and mix again
Then add the buttermilk and mix. It will look like a curdled mess at this point, but that's fine!
Make a well in the dry ingredients and add some of the liquid
Mix it in with a spatula or wooden spoon
Add some more and again mix it in
Then finally add the rest of the liquid and mix to a smooth batter
Carefully spoon the mixture into the cases
Bake for around 30mins or until a cocktail stick comes out clean
Transfer to a wire rack to cool
For the frosting, mix the softened butter and vanilla in a large bowl
Add the sifted icing sugar and start to mix
Then add the milk and continue to mix until you have a smooth frosting
