Sour Cream Chocolate Cake
Report
Ultra rich, moist, and fudgy, this Sour Cream Chocolate Cake is super easy to make. Topped with a thick chocolate sour cream frosting, it has a unique flavor that's slightly tangy but also perfectly sweet.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease a 10x15 inch (4-4.5 quart) glass baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
