Method
Mix the flour, 30 g of cocoa, 180 g of sugar and the baking soda in a bowl.
Add the eggs, soft butter, slightly warm milk and vinegar and beat with a mixer into a smooth, runny batter.
Line a 20 cm pan with parchment and pour in the batter no higher than two thirds of the pan. Bake for 40–45 minutes at 180 °C until a skewer comes out dry and cool completely.
Whip the sour cream with 10 g of cocoa and 45 g of sugar until smooth.
Cut the cake into 2 layers, spread the bottom half with cream, cover with the second and coat the top with the remaining cream.
Leave the cake in the refrigerator for 1–2 hours before serving.
