List of Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter
1 3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup cake flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup miniature or regular chocolate chips

Chocolate Fondant Glaze:

1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 cups, approximately, confectioners� sugar
water, as required




Recipe

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Generously spray a 9 by 13 inch rectangular pan with non-stick cooking spray.

In a mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 5-6 minutes. Stir in eggs, and the one cup of cake flour until smooth.

Add in milk, sour cream, vanilla, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and all-purpose flour and blend to make a smooth batter, scraping the bottom of the mixer every once in awhile, about 2-3 minutes.

Fold in chocolate chips and spoon batter into pan.

Place pan on baking sheet.

Bake until cake springs baked when gently touched, about 45-60 minutes.

While still warm, glaze with chocolate fondant.

For the chocolate fondant, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, about 1-2 minutes on High. Add in the butter and stir to melt, heating a bit more, if necessary. Then, stir this into the confectioners sugar in a larger bowl, whisking to make a smooth glaze. Pour onto the cake.

Serves about 12-16
