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. |

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. |

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.
