Cake with sour cream frosting
Description
Homemade treats for tea. Even classic recipes of favorite cakes sometimes call for a twist. This version is one such example. Less sweet but just as rich, the sour cream frosting pairs wonderfully with chocolate cake layers. I highly recommend giving this recipe a try. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
