https://www.baileeskitchen.com/chocolate-dream-cake/
Ingredients
ā¢ 1 cup brown sugar
ā¢ 2 cups granulated sugar
ā¢ 1 1/4 cups cocoa powder
ā¢ 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
ā¢ 2 teaspoons baking soda
ā¢ 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
ā¢ 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
ā¢ 1 1/2 cups sour cream
ā¢ 4 eggs
ā¢ 1/2 cup buttermilk
ā¢ 3/4 cup vegetable oil
ā¢ 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
ā¢ 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
ā¢ 1 1/2 cups hot coffee
Frosting
ā¢ 1/3 cup butter
ā¢ 1/2 cup sour cream
ā¢ 1 1/4 cups sugar
ā¢ 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
ā¢ 1 cup dark chocolate chips
ā¢ 1/4 teaspoon salt
ā¢ 1-2 tablespoons milk (if needed to thin)
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350Ā°F. Spray a half-sheet pan (18x13 inches) with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, mix sour cream, vegetable oil, eggs, buttermilk, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix for about a minute.
5. Slowly stir in hot coffee until fully combined. The batter will be thināthis is normal.
6. Pour the batter into the greased half-sheet pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Tip: The batter may rise close to the edge, so place a baking sheet underneath to catch any potential spills.
Frosting Instructions
7. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
8. Stir in sugar and sour cream, mixing constantly. Bring to a low boil and let simmer for 30 seconds.
9. Remove from heat and whisk in cocoa powder, salt, and dark chocolate chips until smooth.
10. If the frosting thickens while waiting for the cake to cool, return it to low heat and stir in 1-2 tablespoons of milk until it reaches a spreadable consistency.
Finishing Touches
11. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes, then pour the warm frosting over the top and spread evenly.
12. For a decorative touch, sprinkle the edges with your favorite sprinklesābecause what's a cake without sprinkles?
Enjoy!
