I officially declare it Valentine’s Day season! This is my favorite time of year! It was about this time a few years ago that I got the idea for small-scale desserts that would serve only two. To celebrate, I will be posting romantic desserts all the way up ‘til the big day. Is there anything special y'all would like to see here? I’m open to requests!
Let’s start with the ultimate chocolate cake. I make this fudgey cake with real chocolate instead of cocoa powder because I like the crumb it produces. The sour cream glaze is proof that chocolate and sour cream were made for each other.
This chocolate sour cream cake is all kinds of delicious!Chocolate Sour Cream Cake

What kind of flour did you use- Cake Flour or AP Flour?
If you used AP Flour, was it bleached or unbleached?

Thank you for this wonderful recipe--made it today to use up some leftover sour cream and it is astoundingly good!
Lisa says
Man im not sure why but the center of the cake colapsed, cooked in a 7" pan because thats all I had for about 32 mins. I didnt have parchment so I used butter and flour, any ideas what happened?
Christina Lane says
Wrong size pan :(
Kelly says
A 1-inch difference in pan size won’t make a cake collapse. It was probably under baked.

Greetings!! Can I use buttermilk instead of sour cream since it's hard to get sour cream here.
