So easy and quick - turned out perfectly - consumed rapidly by all - I had no sour cream so used milk and still was a success - will be made regularly from now on. -
I 'loved' this recipe. Tried it already but just 'now' getting around to 'putting' my thoughts--on the web, as I don't get a chance to get on it 'every' day! So thank you --as this recipe is very 'good' & very 'easy'!!! I 'will' check out your 'other' recipes too--as I 'know' they will be good-- if this one is any 'indication' of your others--haha!! Am anxious to try some more! Thanks ! :) -
I tried it and it was delish!! I didn't have sour cream and read that a reviewer used milk so I used that and the only other change I made was I didn't add chocolate chips to the top layer. I used a round cake pan and it was DELISH! The batter is thick but it bakes up light and fluffy. Thanks for posting - will definitely make again. -
Great! One of the best cakes I have ever made. -
Excellent! I made these into cupcakes for my husband's birthday. I got 21 good-sized cupcakes, and I think I could have stretched it to 24. I had topping left over because it was difficult to ration correctly, but these are still wonderful! I will definitely make them again in the cake form! Thanks!

Impressive on all fronts! Easy to prepare, deliciously moist and lovely to look at! (My 3yr old daughter picked this one out of a line up of cake pictures here on 'zaar to make for her Papa's birthday) I used vanilla yogurt instead of sour cream and baked for 35 minutes. I drizzled Recipe #276879 over it and I do believe it is the best birthday cake I have ever made. :D Thank you so much for posting this chocolate and cinnamon lover's dream!
