Here’s another great Valentine’s Day recipe for you guys: chocolate chip sour cream cake! And, as a bonus, here are two ways to present your cake: marshmallow-topped cupcakes and black forest heart-shaped mini cakes!

The original recipe was just chocolate sour cream cake, but while I was making it I thought the color of the batter looked a little light. That made me worry the cake wouldn’t be chocolaty enough.

It’s too late for you to make this for Thanksgiving dessert, but I wanted to share it with you anyway, in case you have any leftover pumpkin and culinary gumption. Because it’s super tasty! It’s made with two of my favorite things: pumpkin and marshmallows. MARSHMALLOWS! If that’s not making you scramble to click “print this recipe” I don’t know what will.

The topping is especially great, not only because it’s yummy, but also because it covers up any unsightly cracks and crevices on the top of the cheesecake, which are sure to result if you’re like me and suck at making cheesecake. Click to continue »
