The best Chocolate Cake EVER

My amazing friend from Texas shared this recipe with me. I must say this is the best cake I've ever had. It is moist and has a deliciously rich chocolate flavor. There is nothing fake about this one! I LOVE CHOCOLATE!

4 squares unsweetened chocolate

¾ cup sour cream

¼ cup shortening (I don't even own shortening so I used butter instead...click for substitute conversion)

1 cup water

2 eggs

1 tsp. vanilla

2 cups flour

2 cups sugar

1 ¼ tsp. soda

½ tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. salt

beat together for three minutes. Bake for 30-40 minutes at 350 ˚.

Frosting:

3 oz unsweetened chocolate

3 cups powdered sugar

¼ cup sour cream

¼ cup margarine (I use butter of course!)
