- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.
- Beat together the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour, beating until just incorporated.

CHOCOLATE CRUMBS
These are so versatile. You can crumble over ice cream or into yogurt. Use them in place of chocolate chips for all the flavor with a different texture. Use them in a layered cake. Use them to make a pie crust. Be creative!!!!! This is Christina Tosi's recipe. She was on Today this morning. Apparently the woman lives on sugar. She say say she is a hummingbird.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 300 degrees F.
- Combine the flour, cornstarch, sugar, cocoa powder and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and paddle on low speed until mixed.
- Add the butter and paddle on low speed until the mixture starts to come together in small clusters.
- Spread the clusters on a parchment- or Silpat-lined sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes, breaking them up occasionally. The crumbs should still be slightly moist to the touch at that point; they will dry and harden as they cool.
- Let the crumbs cool completely before using in a recipe or eating. Stored in an airtight container, they will keep fresh for 1 week at room temperature or 1 month in the fridge or freezer.

- Use parchment paper or a silicone mat when baking crumb bars to prevent sticking.

- Chill the crumb bars for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving to allow the flavors to meld.
