It's hard to resist a slice of homemade cake, so this Scratch-Made Sour Cream Chocolate Cake is sure to be a hit. The secret to this cake recipe is to use the rapid mix method, which creates an incredible texture. Sour cream and Dutch cocoa also gives this cake a rich and decadent texture. Since this cake is bursting with the heavenly flavor of chocolate, it doesn't really need frosting - a simple dusting of powdered sugar is perfect. However, if you love chocolate desserts, this cake would be great topped with a chocolate ganache.
