      10 tb Unsalted butter
     3/4 c  Unsweetened cocoa
       2 c  Superfine sugar
     3/4 c  Sour cream

   1 1/4 c  Confectioners' sugar
       8 oz Cream cheese; room temperature
     1/2 c  Heavy cream

  Heat oven to 350 F/175 C.

  Butter a 9" springform pan and line with parchment paper. In a

  superfine sugar, and whisk to blend.

  In a small bowl, combine sour cream, eggs, and vanilla; mix well.
  Add to Guinness mixture. Add flour and baking soda, and whisk again
  until smooth. Pour into buttered pan, and bake until risen and
  firm, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Place pan on a wire rack and cool
  completely in pan.

  For The Topping:

  Using a food processor or by hand, mix confectioners' sugar to
  break up lumps. Add cream cheese and blend until smooth. Add heavy
  cream, and mix until smooth and spreadable.

  Remove cake from pan and place on a platter or cake stand. Ice top
  of cake only, so that it resembles a frothy pint of Guinness.
