Why use a boxed cake mix when it's so simple to make a delicious chocolate cake from scratch?
4 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate, broken into pieces
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 2/3 cup boiling water
2 1/3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 13x9 baking pan.
In a large mixer bowl, combine the chocolate, butter and water with a spoon, stir until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Add flour, sugar, sour cream, eggs, baking soda, salt and vanilla; beat on low speed of electric mixer until smooth.
Pour batter into the prepared pan. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Frost as desired.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
