On Sunday I had a sour cream chocolate cake (smittenkitchen chocolate peanut butter cake recipe) break when I was idiotically passing it between assembly plate and cooling rack and flipping it over. I flipped it over, pressed some broken chunks together and covered it in coffee buttercream. If anyone near you requests a coffee cake, please post about it!
