You might not need frosting for this Sour Cream Chocolate Cake Recipe, or you can add a rich chocolate frosting and any number of toppings, like your favorite nuts.

Guila Vinkenberg, Hebron, Nebraska, sends her recipe, saying, “I made this cake a couple of times a week when we were shucking corn by hand back in the 1940s and ’50s. I did chores mornings and evenings, fixed the noon meal, baked bread, cleaned chickens or ducks, and then helped shuck in the afternoon.

“Several unemployed boys helped us. We had 200 acres of corn. I also kept the school teacher as the school was close to our farm. I am now 87 years young.”

Thank you, Guila, for sharing those memories with us.
