- 2 cup all-purpose flour

Frosting:
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease 30 muffin cups (2-1/2 inch) or line with paper liners.
- Whisk together flour, cocoa, sugar and baking soda in a medium bowl and set aside. Combine corn syrup, beer, butter, eggs, vanilla and sour cream in a large mixer bowl. Beat with an electric mixer for two minutes. Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients until well blended. Batter will be very thin.

- Beat cream cheese in a medium bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in powdered sugar and enough cream, on low speed, to make a creamy texture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Top each cupcake with a dollop of frosting and dust with cocoa powder.
