Cooking method
-
Step 1:
In a bowl, beat the sugar and eggs with a mixer until the sugar dissolves.
-
Step 2:
Add the sour cream—any fat content works; I used 21%—and beat again.
-
Step 3:
Add a pinch of salt, a teaspoon of baking powder, and the flour (holding back 2 tablespoons). Beat with the mixer until smooth.
-
Step 4:
Divide the batter into two equal parts and pour half into another bowl. Stir 3 tablespoons of cocoa into one part and the reserved 2 tablespoons of flour into the other.
-
Step 5:
Stir each batter with a spoon until smooth.
-
Step 6:
Grease a baking pan with butter. Spoon the batter into the center of the pan one spoonful at a time—first the chocolate, then the plain.
-
Step 7:
Keep alternating, one spoonful after another, until the batter is used up.
-
Step 8:
Bake in a preheated 350°F (180°C) oven for 30–35 minutes.
-
Step 9:
The sour cream cake is ready! Enjoy!
