Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons sour cream
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°; grease the inside of a 9 x5 inch loaf pan and dust with flour.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  • In a large bowl, combine the butter and brown sugar; cream with an electric mixer on med-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice as necessary.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.
  • Beat in the sour cream; stir in the orange zest and vanilla.
  • With the mixer on low, add flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl a few times as necessary.
  • After the last addition, mix for 30 seconds on medium speed; stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
  • Bake until the cake is golden brown and a pick comes out clean, 50-55 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, invert it onto a wire rack, and then turn it right side up on a rack to cool completely.
  • Make the glaze: whisk together the sour cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla; spread the glaze over the top of the cake with an offset spatula, letting it drip down the sides.
  • Let stand until the glaze is set, about 1 hour; slice and serve.
  • Store uneaten cake in a cake keeper or loosely wrap in plastic and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.

CHOCOLATE ORANGE SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE



Chocolate Orange Sour Cream Pound Cake image

At Christmas time we were always thrilled if we received a chocolate orange. If you coarsely chop one up and add it to this tender, buttery cake you end up with a cake that will be just as well received as a chocolate orange. You can marbleize this cake or leave it as a vanilla-orange batter, with the Chocolate Orange pieces, dotted throughout the cake. Not as heavy as a pound cake, but moist and delicious. I highly recommend.

CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHIP SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE



Chocolate Chocolate Chip Sour Cream Pound Cake image

After I couldn't find a recipe for chocolate sour cream pound cake, I made this recipe by combining three cake recipes and using some suggestions from my brother-in-law. It will stay moist for a week, but this cake is so good it won't last that long!

Categories     Desserts     Cakes     Pound Cake Recipes

Time 4h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup unsalted butter
2 ½ cups white sugar, divided
6 eggs, separated
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
½ cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Before you begin, bring all of the cold ingredients to room temperature: set out the sour cream, butter, and the eggs (separate the eggs while they are still cold) for about half an hour before making the cake batter.
  • Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and lightly flour a 10-inch tube pan. Sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Combine the sour cream and vanilla extract in a separate bowl.
  • Beat the butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until creamy, about 30 seconds. Gradually add 2 cups of sugar and beat on high speed until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably paler in color. Add the room-temperature egg yolks one at a time, allowing each yolk to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next.
  • Pour in one third of the flour mixture and mix on low speed until combined. Blend in half of the sour cream mixture. Continue adding the flour mixture alternately with the sour cream, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar in a clean mixing bowl with clean beaters until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and beat until medium-stiff peaks are formed (lift your beater or whisk straight up: the tip of the peak formed by the egg whites should curl over slightly.) Use a whisk or rubber spatula to fold 1/3 of the meringue mixture into the cake batter to lighten it.
  • Fold the remaining egg white mixture into the batter until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake the cake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when you touch it lightly and a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for ten minutes before inverting the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.

### 1. **Use high-quality ingredients.** This means using real butter, not margarine, and using good-quality chocolate. 2. **Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.** This will help to incorporate air into the batter, which will make the cake lighter and more tender. 3. **Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.** This will help to prevent the batter from curdling. 4. **Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream.** This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too thick. 5. **Do not overmix the batter.** Overmixing can make the cake tough. 6. **Bake the cake at a moderate temperature until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.** This will help to prevent the cake from drying out. 7. **Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.** This will help to prevent the frosting from melting. ###

Conclusion

This chocolate orange sour cream pound cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and flavorful crumb and tangy orange glaze, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
