Chocolate Sour Cream Cake with Chocolate Frosting



This produces such a thick, delicious, spreadable frosting, it almost seems like magic. You’ll have fun making swirls or stripes or whatever whimsical patterns your spoon or spatula leads you to.
Be sure to cool the cake completely before topping with the lustrous frosting. You can store the unfrosted, cake, wrapped in foil and kept in a cool place, for up a day before frosting.
