WOW! I never thought of using sourdough starter in things like chocolate cake. My mom got caught up in the 1960s sourdough craze that was started locally by an LA Times magazine article on baking with sourdough, and that pot of starter bubbled on her counter for years until we all lost interest. The use I looked forward to the most was pancakes on Friday nights. They were yeasty, thick and chewy and reminded me more of English muffins than pancakes. Fall is here and I'm inspired! Thanks!
