Sour Cream Brownie Cake Recipe

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Yield: 1 15×10-inch sheet cake

Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
1 stick butter
2 tablespoons margarine
1 cup water
2 cups brown sugar
2 cups unsifted flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
2 tablespoons sour cream (for frosting)
1 tablespoon butter (for frosting)
1 tablespoon margarine (for frosting)
1 teaspoon vanilla (for frosting)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Melt the butter and chocolate together with water in a saucepan over low heat. Once melted, allow the mixture to cool slightly.

  3. Combine the dry ingredients (brown sugar, unsifted flour, and salt) in a bowl and set aside.

  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the sour cream, eggs, vanilla extract, and the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.

  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, beating until the batter is smooth and well incorporated.

  6. If desired, fold in the chopped nuts to add an extra crunch and flavor to your brownie cake batter.

  7. Grease and flour a 15×10-inch baking pan, then pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  9. Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting.

  10. While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a small mixing bowl, beat together the remaining sour cream, confectioners’ sugar, butter, margarine, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

  11. Once the cake has cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the top.

  12. For best results, refrigerate the frosted cake before serving to allow the frosting to set.

  13. Slice and serve your delicious Sour Cream Brownie Cake, and enjoy the rich, decadent flavors with your friends and family!
