Directions
Chocolate-Sour Cream Cake & Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting,This is the traditional birthday cake in my brother’s house. I ALWAYS look forward to having it again. It is moist, rich and decadent! If you use chunky peanut butter in the Frosting, omit the chopped peanuts. PLEASE NOTE, this is a recipe that you really need to make BOTH the cake and the frosting to appreciate. It is the combination that makes it so good. If you are looking for JUST a chocolate cake recipe, you should try Recipe #2496, not this one. ;),Delicious cake: as Marg promises, it is indeed very moist, rich, and dense! It held up very well over the course of several days, although it almost didn’t need to… I made the mistake of eating several pieces the day I baked it, and it took about a week for my arteries to forgive me 😉 I did double the amount of peanut butter in the frosting, to give it a really noticeable peanut-butter flavor, and if I made the recipe again, I’d also increase the amount of cocoa in the cake so that the chocolate was strong enough to hold up to the peanut butter. This recipe’s definitely a keeper.,I only made the icing; it was fabulous!!! It tastes just like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. I will use this again for sure! Thank you.
