  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream
  • frosting:
  • 1/2 cup butter, cubed
  • 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream
  • 4-1/2 to 5 cups confectioners' sugar

Directions:

  1. Dissolve cocoa in boiling water; cool. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream, beating well after each addition. Add cocoa mixture and mix well.
