Recipe

This chocolate dump-it cake is so easy to whip up and impossibly delicious at the same time! It’s just what you need when you want to bake something special but have neither much time nor hard-to-find ingredients.

All you need is to mix the simple batter, bake it for half an hour, prepare the two-ingredient frosting and top the cake off with it.

Steps

1 Done	To a saucepan add the sugar, butter, chocolate, and a cup of water. Cook over medium heat and stir until melted. Let the mixture slightly cool.
2 Done	Combine the sifted flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Separately combine the milk and vinegar.
3 Done	When the chocolate has cooled a little, add the eggs and milk. Whisk. Then whisk in the flour mixture in several additions. Finally, add the vanilla and whisk a little to blend.
4 Done	Pour the mixture into a greased and floured 9-inch tube pan. Place a baking sheet on the lowest rack in your oven. Place the pan on the middle rack. Bake the cake at 375 °F (190 °C) for about 30 minutes. Let the cake cool completely, and cut it into two layers.
5 Done	To make the frosting combine the melted and cooled chocolate chips with room-temperature sour cream.
6 Done	Place the top cake layer top-side-down onto a cake stand or platter. Spread the frosting on it. Add the bottom layer bottom-side-up. Frost the cake with the rest of the chocolate and sour cream mixture.

You can also try making a double-decker cake using two 9-inch cake pans. Be sure to use room-temperature sour cream or the frosting can become grainy.

Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and everything. But just imagine if you added some great pictures or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this site could certainly be one of the greatest in its niche. Terrific blog!|

Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!|

I do not know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering issues with your website. It appears as though some of the written text in your posts are running off the screen. Can somebody else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them as well? This could be a issue with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen before. Kudos|

Its like you learn my mind! You appear to know so much approximately this, like you wrote the ebook in it or something. I think that you just can do with some percent to drive the message home a little bit, however instead of that, this is wonderful blog. An excellent read. I’ll definitely be back.|
