Time 45m

Yield 1 three layer cake, 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, preferably Dutch process
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups water
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Butter the bottoms and sides of three 8-inch round cakepans.
  • Line the bottom of each pan with a round of parchment or waxed paper and butter the paper.
  • Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl, and whisk to combine them well.
  • Add the oil and sour cream and half the water, whisk to blend; then gradually beat in the remaining water.
  • Blend in the vinegar and vanilla, and whisk in eggs, beating until well blended.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl and be sure the batter is well mixed.
  • Divide among the 3 prepared cake pans.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a cake tester or wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean.
  • Let cool in the pans for about 20 minutes. Invert onto wire racks, carefully peel off the paper liners, and let cool completely.
  • (Note: These cakes are very, very soft. I found them a lot easier to work with after firming them up in the freezer for 30 minutes. They'll defrost quickly once assembled. You'll be glad you did this, trust me.).
  • Frost with desired frosting. For the Peanut Butter Frosting and Glaze with the original recipe: http://smittenkitchen.com/2008/08/chocolate-peanut-butter-cake/.

CHOCOLATE CHIP SOUR CREAM SNACK CAKE



Chocolate Chip Sour Cream Snack Cake image

In this loose interpretation of my mom's chocolate chip-sour cream bundt cake, sweet rice flour, all-purpose flour and a healthy amount of sour cream combine to create a rich, plush cake with a moist and structured crumb. Baked in a versatile 8-inch square pan and generously studded with melty semisweet chocolate chips, this snackable cake is simple but surprisingly decadent, a reminder that at the end of the day, cake should taste good and be a joy to eat. Enjoy a homey, comforting slice with your fingers or a fork - there are no rules here.

Provided by Joy Cho

Time 1h45m

Yield 16 servings (one 8-inch square cake)

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
3/4 cup (105 grams) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons (105 grams) sweet rice flour, such as Mochiko
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon (150 grams) full-fat sour cream, at room temperature
2 tablespoons milk, at room temperature
1 heaping cup (200 grams) semisweet chocolate chips, plus more for topping

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-inch square pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line the bottom with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the sides (to make it easier to remove the cake after baking) and grease the parchment.
  • Combine the all-purpose flour, sweet rice flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl and whisk until combined.
  • Beat the butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sugar and cream the mixture until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add in the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition until combined. Scrape the bowl once more, then beat in the vanilla. Sift half of the dry ingredients over the egg mixture and beat just until combined. Beat in the sour cream and milk, then sift in the rest of the dry ingredients and beat just until the batter is smooth. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface with a small offset spatula. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top. Bake the cake, rotating the pan halfway through, for about 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then gently loosen the edges with a small offset spatula and carefully transfer the cake (using the parchment sling to assist) onto a rack to cool completely.

THE WORLD'S FASTEST CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM CAKE!! MAYBE THE BEST!



The World's Fastest Chocolate Sour Cream Cake!! Maybe the Best! image

So so so good! So so so little work. Well, yeah, come on, you DO have to measure the ingredients. And a simple glaze would be good. But if you are really, I mean REALLY, pressed for time, place a paper doily on the cake, sift confectioner's sugar over it, lift carefully and there you have it. And this is sooo much better than a cake mix. I use an 8" square scalloped pan; that makes it look really special. Nawww, that's not cheating. It's just taking a little help where you can find it! Recipe was found somewhere on the internet April, 1998. That's how long I've been making it.

GERTIE'S CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM CAKE



Gertie's Chocolate Sour Cream Cake image

This chocolate cake is a very old family favorite. My Grandmother Gertie made this for birthdays and special occasions, my Daddy's favorite cake. DH says it's richer than Bill Gates. This is an old tried and true recipe. My mother made it with vanilla frosting, but Gertie always made the double punch with chocolate sour cream frosting. Gertie always made several layers, Mom made a big sheet cake, cooking time depends on how you want to make it. My mother and Gertie are gone now. My sweet sister made this cake for me for my birthday (Gertie style), and I realized I had never shared the recipe. I hope y'all will enjoy it.
