CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Cream sugar and butter until light.
• Add soda and vanilla.
• Add one egg at a time, alternating with small amounts of flour until all the flour and eggs are used.
• Add cocoa and sour cream. Mix until just blended.
• Pour into greased and floured tube cake pan.
• Bake at 325° for 1 1/2 hours or until done.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Butter and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan. In a large bowl, sift the flour with the cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. In a standing electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add the granulated sugar and beat at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract. At low speed, beat in the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with 3 additions of the sour cream. Gradually beat in the boiling water.
• Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake in the lower third of the oven for about 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and let cool completely. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar before slicing and serving.
