It seems like a lot of work, but it is really quite simple. The cake turns out very moist and tasty. It would make a fine breakfast bread. Bringing the key ingredients up to room temp really helps.

CHOCOLATE ORANGE SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE



Chocolate Orange Sour Cream Pound Cake image

At Christmas time we were always thrilled if we received a chocolate orange. If you coarsely chop one up and add it to this tender, buttery cake you end up with a cake that will be just as well received as a chocolate orange. You can marbleize this cake or leave it as a vanilla-orange batter, with the Chocolate Orange pieces, dotted throughout the cake. Not as heavy as a pound cake, but moist and delicious. I highly recommend.
