Moist - not too sweet, oh so good!


12 large servings

1          (18 oz.) package Devil's Food cake mix
1/2       cup sour cream

Preheat the oven to the temperature stated on the cake mix package.

Prepare the cake according to the package directions and add sour cream to the batter.
   
Pour the batter into the pan and bake according to package directions

Gather ingredients for the fudge frosting.

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.

   

While the cake is still warm, poke a few holes in the top with a fork.  


Pour the warm frosting over the cake.   
Serve immediately or allow the cake to cool.
