BEST COCOA CAKE
1 c. butter
3 c. light brown sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract
3/4 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 c. cake flour
1 1/3 c. sour cream
1 1/3 c. boiling water
Grease and flour three 9-inch pans or line with waxed paper. Preheat oven
to 350 degrees. In large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar well, then add
eggs. Beat on high speed for about 5 minutes. On low speed, add vanilla, cocoa,
baking soda and salt. Add flour alternately with sour cream on low speed until
smooth. Pour in boiling water and stir with spoon until blended. Pour into
prepared pans. Bake about 30-35 minutes or until done. Cool in pans 10 minutes
and turn out on wire racks to cool completely. Frost with any flavor or whipped
cream. I prefer chocolate mocha frosting. NOTE: If this cake is too large for
your family, part of it can be frozen for later use.
