- Aunt Eileen’s Sour Cream Cake - This recipe is ridiculously easy and SO GOOD!
This is one of those quick cake recipes that lives on the side of our fridge... it's an easy cake to make after supper or for a pot luck / bake sale. Julie's aunt wrote out the sour cream spice cake recipe for Julie years ago and it was a regular bake in our kitchen. Some people call this an easy chocolate chip cake recipe or easy cinnamon coffee cake, cinnamon sour cream cake. Doesn't really matter what you call it, the cake is eaten before you can decide.
Ingredients:
90 mL (6 Tbsp) butter
250 mL (1 cup) sugar
2 eggs
325 mL (1⅓ cup) flour
7 mL (1½ tsp) baking powder
5 mL (1 tsp) baking soda
5 mL (1 tsp) cinnamon
250 mL (1 cup) sour cream
250 mL (1 cup) chocolate chips
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 180º C (350ºF)
Grease a 9"x13" cake dish
Combine and cream together butter, sugar, and eggs (reserve 1 Tbsp of sugar for sprinkling later)
Combine dry ingredients
Combine dry ingredients with the butter mixture in 3 or 4 additions, mixing well each time.
Mix in the sour cream
Pour batter into prepared cake dish and top with chocolate chips and sprinkle on reserved sugar.
Bake for about 30 minutes - or until cake tester comes out clean.

More "Side of the Fridge" recipes please!! If you added chopped pecans to Aunt Eileen's cake you would have my Aunt Peggy's Sour Cream cake. Great video!
I was just thinking nuts would be a great addition!
more-ish please...
@@sandrawallace1001 The more calories the better right? I can't believe Aunt Peggy didn't serve it with whipped or ice cream.
A new series
@@DuckyB I can definitely imagine whipped cream or vanilla ice cream with this ;)
I strongly request the "Recipes from the Side of the Fridge" series. Please!!!
I concur, a Recipes from the side of the fridge series would be a great way for the viewer to gain a personal connection with Glen and Julie with the added benefit of you being able to eat your favourite treats again.
Cheers from Australia
Hey Glen, my father introduced me to your channel sometime during the pandemic. We’d always come home from church on sundays and watch Sunday morning and the old cookbook shows. He passed away this year and every time I watch I always think of him.
Thanks Glen for your videos
That’s a lovely memory. I’m so sorry he’s gone.
Sending you a virtual hug. Have a Blessed Christmas.
🙏🙏🙏
Yes, please, more "side of the fridge" recipes, and anything else you and Julie would like to eat more frequently!!
Loving the green hand mixer. I'm old enough to remember when "avocado" was all the rage as the colour for kitchen stuff.
Let’s not forget Harvest Gold!
@@mikezimmermann89 Unfortunately, I still have a Harvest Gold bath tub. I just hide it with the shower curtain. Although I did change the Harvest Gold toilet and bathroom sink with white. I also had an Avocado kitchen sink that was only 8'" deep. WTF am I supposed to do with that? Replaced with a double stainless kitchen sink of a proper size.
@@mikezimmermann89When my husband and I married in 73, we bought our harvest gold appliances through our Sears catalog store. Electric range, refrigerator, washer and dryer, on sale for $1000. They all lasted for more than 20 years. 51 years later, I'm on my 2nd range, washer and dryer, and 3rd fridge. All in black or stainless or white.😂
I love this video. You should totally call the series "side of the fridge recipes".
Aunt Eileen seems to have been a genuine treasure, as is her cake.
Please do more of your favourite recipes, this cake looks awesome
Helen Rennie just did a vid on how to properly cream butter and sugar. She said with her equipment it’s about 8 minutes I think. She went all out explaining it too, with food coloring so u can c!
The side of the fridge recipes. I love it.
Make it a series already!
It's a new series! Old Cookbook Show, Cocktails After Dark, now, Recies From The Side Of The Fridge!
How funny about the recipes on the side of the refrigerator! I took down a stack held together with a paper binder a couple of months ago. They were starting to fade from the sun. 😊 That would be a cute title for a cookbook "Recipe Collection from The Side of The Refrigerator." I just finished copying the recipe. I love this because it just has basic ingredients that you don't have to search Amazon for. Thank you.
I love these types of videos! Not your standard recipes that everybody does and also teaches us about different methods. Great stuff!
That cake looks really good! I just put together a family cook book for my children and found my grandmother's sour cream cake. Hers does not include the chocolate chips but is also very good. Thank you so much for this wonderful channel.
This is the kind of recipe I LOVE LOVE LOVE--something that people actually make and eat. It looks and sounds delicious. If you absolutely had to make it seem "formal," you could bake it in a bundt pan.
yes...that definitely looks like a "more" cake! "side of the fridge" recipes are the best...looking at all the comments, i'd say we all agree we need "more" of those as well 😁
I am also joining the call for more of the recipes you and Julie really enjoy eating. Especially as Julie always wants more vegetables, and I tend to agree with her.
I love tried and true family recipes. They are usually simple, economical and taste great. Thank-you Aunt Eileen and of course Glen.
Wow, I didn't know anybody else left their favorite recipes hanging in the kitchen! This makes me happy! Thank you! I look forward to seeing more of these!
I've always loved the combination of cinnamon and chocolate. I will be making it!
Just made this evening. Delicious! An unusual combination of spice cake and chocolate chips, but it really works. Thanks Aunt Eileen!
I thought, not enough spices! So I added in a bit of nutmeg and a bit of clove powder. And I had leftover coffee so added in a tiny bit as well. And didn’t have chocolate chips, so substituted for chopped walnuts. SO DELICIOUS!!
I made a very similar cake to this-I followed a basic spice cake recipe and added miniature chocolate chips in the batter. I glazed the top with the leftover chips melted with coffee and some cinnamon. It was delightful.
When Glen said he would eat the whole cake if not put away I laughed. That's the way DH and I are about my 'go to' chocolate cake recipe that I use. 😂
Always love the stories to go with the recipes! Those with a family connection are the best.
Thank You!
Gum drop cake! A blast from my past. My mom used to make it at Christmas and I had completely forgotten until you said it!
Yes! More recipes from the side of the fridge please! More of your favorites!
Sour cream is magic - I use creme fraiche for everything (what I think might be our direct equivalent to sour cream breaks when heated, but creme fraiche is perfect).
It's great in cakes (it makes a brutally good chocolate bundt cake), it great for dips, it great to dollop on to a stew or soup, it's an instant sauce (just fry up a protein and some veggies or whatever, season however you like, dump some creme fraiche on and you've got dinner)... I'm definitely trying this cake and hopefully adding it to my creme fraiche repertoire soon 👍
More fridge recipes please
💋💋💋💖OMG!!! she called them brownies, bt this looks like what i remember. i been hunting for a "brownie" recipe for about 30 yrs. tysvm!!!!!
i’ve not heard “moorish” in the wild before! my late mother picked it up from an agatha christie book when i was young, and i still use and love it.
that cake does look very moorish!
The subtitles have converted Aunt Eileen's cake to anti-lean cake. I guess that's what a cup of chocolate will do.
Thank you, Aunt Eileen!
It's lovely seeing you both so excited, your good spirits definitely helped lift my day!
I'd suggest 1/4-1/2 tsp salt (depending on salted butter or not), not 1 tsp for the quantity of flour and sugar and butter in this recipe. If you go to 1 tsp I'd expect it to actually start tasting salty. One time I made banana bread without the 1/2 tsp salt the recipe called for and the taste was so comparatively dull to what I was used to that I instantly knew that I'd forgotten an ingredient. The salt from your butter in this recipe probably prevents that from being the case. I bet if you made it with unsalted butter you would notice the difference.
Looks like I'll be making this after Christmas, once all the Christmas goodies are gone. Looks divine!
Watching your videos is such a great start to my day! Thank you!
I suspect that everyone has a collection of well loved recipes stuck on the side of the fridge!
Yeah. I use to until I moved and didn't have enough room on the fridge for them. Now they're 'top of my recipe box' recipes.
@@TherealDanielleNelson *looking at fridge* A calendar, some date night coupons, a clip full of recipes and pics of grandkids. The natural progression of life.
Hi Glen & Julie, my kind of dessert recipe...simple & delish. Thanks for sharing.
☃️Happy Holidays ☃️
I like Jule's stories. Should allow for more of that. Some of them are great! She could almost top Stewart McLean :) ❤ #CBCForever
Watched this many, many times. Today’s the day to actually taste this!
I love watching Glen dance around when he loves something he made. I look forward to trying this cake this week.
I made this yesterday. I added 1/4 tsp. table salt and 1 tsp. of vanilla. It was really good and resembled a coffee cake in taste. I baked for 28 min. at 350F. It was a bit dry but my oven is a bit fast. If I make it again I will start at 25 minutes. We went to some friends’ house for dinner and they liked it also. I would put even more chocolate chips on top!
I loved how enthusiastic you both were. It's clear you guys were stoked for this cake. I'd definitely like to see a few more of these recipes, since they're clearly your favourites!
This is a good basic cake recipe. I might try nutmeg instead of cinnamon and add nuts or coconut to the batter. The possibilities are endless.
That looks amazing and something that would be great to “just throw something together” kind of treat. I know we aren’t supposed to have favorites…but Aunt Eileen is now my favorite Aunt!!!!
Definitely do more recipes that you want to eat that have fallen to the wayside because you've been cooking for the show.
I seriously think you should try to put together a cookbook of your own compiling your favorites, both on the show and never been recorded. Maybe every recipe where you did a video have a QR code link to it right after the name of the recipe.
Another winner!!
I just made this immediately after watching. It just got out of the oven. It looks and smells delicious, and was very easy to make.
Update: I've already had two slices and I want MORE
There is a song from my youth plying as background sound track.
That cake looks delicious.
That cake looks fantastic! Can’t wait to see the face of my friends when I give them some
Oh, I think I must try for the holidays.
Made this today, it's super yummy. I baked mine in a smaller pan. It was moist, fluffy and addictive. Thanks for sharing your delicious recipe.
I'm here to hang out with Glen "and friends", I'd definitely still watch episodes about the same recipe! I feel like Glen could find more things to talk about or maybe change one subtle thing.
Appreciate all the work and expertise that is put into this channel. Thanks, Glen!
Growing up every new years day we'd go to the family party at my uncles house, guess it's a French Canadian thing, anyway these were always there and I never knew who brought them but they were so good that and the rice crispies squares 😅only ever had them once a year
This is one of those “perfect for any occasion” recipes. I cant wait to try it.
Adding another to the list of things to tryout
Love side of the fridge recipes. We have a few……..
Excellent cake!
More of your favorites, please!
Looks amazing. I love the low tec, that you make the whole cake in a pyrex cup with hand beaters :)
I don't know why, but this made me feel very Christmasy and happy.
I am making this tonight with butterscotch chips and pecans.
Love your recipes that bring back warm memories 😍
I love seeing recipes that are special to the family. If they're not that fancy even better.
So easy even I who bakes poorly could probably make it! Looks sooo yummy! Will make! Also, love Julie's story behind it!💗💗
Mmmm! I love a good sour cream cake! (Oh who am I kidding--I love pretty darn near anything with sour cream.)
We’ve made the same cake for years called “sour cream bit cake”, always a favorite revipe
My mom used to bake with heavy sour cream all the time... that was farm fresh sour cream.. not store bought, but I imagine that they would be very similar in cakes.. she used to make a sour cream and raisin pie that is still one of my favourites
Loooove at first bite!!! Thanks, Glen, Julie, and especially Aunt Eileen for this yummy must-make-again cake!!!
Thanks Julie and Glen. Childhood comfort food is the best.
A great recipe! Really nice texture. Tip: eat it with a glass of milk when it is still warm :-)
Thank you!
My daddy (1920 - 1996) loves what he called “Vinegar Pie”, a recipe his mother used to make. It didn’t have berries or fruit in it. She just baked it in a bowl. Have you run across a recipe like this?
I bet this would be pretty good with the cinnamon chips or butterscotch chips if you can find them
Yum yum yum
It looks bomb like a cookie cake!
Looks good! Gonna give this a try
I made the same mistake as you when I wired my parents new home. I didn’t put a plug in on the island. Luckily I was able to fish between the floor joists later and add one. For those of you considering an island just remember, every island needs a plug in!
True - but the studio island is on wheels so it can be moved out of the way for cleaning or to get different shots. No way to actually run a power line for a permanent plug; even the cooktop is on a (super heavy duty) extension cord.
@@GlenAndFriendsCooking Yes I didn’t realize that, makes total sense now. We didn’t do much square dancing in Mom and Dad’s kitchen.
Start doing a my favorite recipes for the new year. I have some of those go to recipes that I just have to make.
Aunt Eileen’s cake is wonderful! I’ve made it three times already and no one could stop eating it. I wouldn’t recommend the reverse creaming method for this recipe. The creaming method gives you the lift. When you add the flour and sour cream, don’t over beat it. I tried it both ways. Do it Glen’s way 🙂
Glen, watched this yesterday and made it today for my family get together. It was a huge hit. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Just made it and my family loved it.
The baking soda plus baking powder both have enough sodium to sub for added salt.
My caregiver and I made two of these over a month ago. It was delicious, even though I used non-fat Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Although we did "do a Julie" and didn't measure the chocolate chips. As delicious as it was, it would have been a lot better with more chocolate chips.
Ok, that looks awesome.
I tried this after watching the previous video with Julie making it - excellent cake! Thank you for sharing!
OH YUM...that was so convincing performance that I'm literally salivating while watching you two enjoying your cake. And now to kitchen to see if I have all the ingredients to make it to myself.....must have it! Thank you for that....🤣
I made this today after the upload. Really really simple. Wife loves it
Love the "Moorish" cake.
I never had chocolate chips on sour cream cake usually cinnamon brownsugar crumble,this looks so yummy, luv the old recipes
Made this cake! It was amazing!! My Dad even liked it and he is pretty picky about his cakes. Thanks for another excellent recipe 😁
I've made this from a Betty Crocker cookbook I've had for 30+ years! Yummy!
I need to feed the algorithm- more "side of the fridge" recipes 😎👍👍🙏🙏
Thank you. My mother-in-law always talked about a "One Egg Cake". I found a recipe and made it a couple of times before she passed. It is a pretty good cake. Maybe a "Cake For Two"? Merry Christmas. God Bless and stay safe.
Hi Glen! (and Jules) Been watching your videos for a while now, and this is one of my favourite youtube channels, mainly because it is still the "slow tv" side of youtube. The fast paced, adrenaline filled editing of modern youtube is not my cup of tea. So thank you for making awesome videos. One question about the sour cream you use here: Is it full fat sour cream? so 36% fat or something else? Thank you so much.
And kind regards from Iceland,
Þórður
That sour cream is 20% fat, and it's 'real' in that it only contains cream and bacteria.
I am so going to make this cake. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I am totally all for your "regular favorite" recipes. Tbh, I come for the show and not the recipe.
Looks absolutely delicious. I’m wondering about a variation with butterscotch chips instead of chocolate and adding toasted pecans to the cake batter.
When in doubt... try it!
Oh my gosh thank you for posting this!! I just made it (halfed the recipe made it in a loaf pan) and it was divine🎉
just made this! the texture was so light its a great cake. next time i would definitely add more chocolate chips though because im so used to having cake with some sort of frosting.
Sounds like a new series - "Go-to Recipes from the side of our Fridge!"
As soon as you got to the spicing, my brain really craved some oats in there! Gonna have to take a shot at it someday, perhaps
