- BATTER: Place water, butter and cocoa in large saucepan (3 qt. size)
- Place over medium heat stirring frequently until it just begins to simmer.
- Add sugar and cook and stir 1 minute more. Remove from heat; cool to room temperature (hasten by placing saucepan in larger pan or container that has 2-3 inches of ice water, or place on a potholder in the refrigerator.)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or spray a 15 x 10 x 1-inch baking pan; set aside.
- When chocolate mixture has cooled, stir well scraping bottom for any settled sugar. Beat in sour cream, eggs and vanilla using wooden spoon or hand-held electric mixer. Add flour, baking soda and salt and blend just until ingredients are incorporated well.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 25-30 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched in center and cake begins to pull away from edges. Remove and cool on wire rack.
- FROSTING: If using same saucepan for frosting, wash and dry it.
- Combine powdered sugar, cocoa powder and softened butter in saucepan (or in a medium-large bowl.)
- Beat in milk or cream gradually and add vanilla. Spread over cooled cake and sprinkle nuts on top (optional.)
