MMMMM--------------------------FROSTING-------------------------------
3/4 c Butter; softened
6 3/4 c Confectioners` sugar
2 ts Vanilla extract
2/3 c Milk
2 tb Miniature semisweet
- chocolate chips
In top of a double boiler or a metal bowl over barely
simmering water, melt chocolate and 3 tablespoons
butter; stir until smooth. Cool to room temperature.
Set oven @ 375┬║F/190┬║C.
Line bottoms of 3 greased 8" round baking pans with
parchment; grease parchment.
In a large bowl, cream remaining butter and sugar until
light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well
after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Whisk flour,
baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture
alternately with sour cream, beating well after each
addition.
Remove 2 cups batter to a small bowl; stir in cooled
chocolate mixture and, if desired, chocolate chips,
until blended. Drop plain and chocolate batters by
tablespoonfuls into prepared pans, dividing batters
evenly among pans. To make batter level in pans, tap
several times on counter.
Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out
clean, 20-25 minutes. Cool in pans 10 minutes before
removing to wire racks; remove parchment. Cool
completely.
For frosting, in a large bowl, beat butter until smooth.
Gradually beat in confectionersтАЩ sugar, vanilla and
enough milk to reach desired consistency.
If cake layers have rounded tops, trim with a serrated
knife to make level. In a microwave, melt chocolate
chips; stir until smooth. Cool slightly.
Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate; spread with 1/2
cup frosting. Repeat layers. Top with remaining cake
layer. Frost top and sides of cake.
Drop cooled chocolate by 1/2 teaspoonfuls over frosting.
Using a large offset spatula, smear chocolate to create
a marble design in frosting.
