Equipment
- 2 8 inch cake pans
- 1 Bowl
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1/2 c sugar
- 1/2 c all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 c butter melted
- 1 c sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1/2 c water or coca cola
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 c mini chocolate chips
- Brownie Frosting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray 2 - 8” cake pans with nonstick cooking spray containing flour. (May also cut parchment paper circles for the bottom of each pan to prevent sticking)
- In a large bowl, whisk together the brownie mix, sugar, flour, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt. Add in the wet ingredients: melted butter, sour cream, water, vanilla and eggs and whisk until well combined. Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
- Divide the cake batter equally between the two cake pans and place in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a skewer/knife comes out cleanly. Let the cake cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before removing and placing on a cooling rack to come to room temperature.
- Make the frosting or use 1 tub of ready made. Place the first layer of cake onto a serving platter or cake pedestal and scoop about ½ c of frosting and spread it in an even layer over the cake. Place the second layer of cake and use a spatula to create a thin layer of frosting all over
