Chocolate Bliss Cake

Ingredients

1/2 cup cold water

1/4 cup cocoa powder

3 Tbsp butter

1 cup light brown sugar

1 cup sugar

2 eggs, plus one egg yolk

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup milk

1 tsp baking soda

2 cups flour, sifted

Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 9 x 13 pan, and dust with flour (or extra cocoa), set aside. In small saucepan, whisk cocoa into water. Bring to boil over medium heat. Once boiling, remove from heat and set aside.

In large mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar. Add white sugar, mix well. Add eggs, salt, and vanilla. Mix until smooth and creamy. Add cooled cocoa mixture, mixing until completely combined.

In small bowl, mix sour cream with milk and baking soda. Add milk mixture to batter, alternating with the flour. Mix well after each addition.

Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until a tooth pick inserted near the centre comes out clean. Cool completely on wire rack.

Frost or decorate as desired.
