Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a bowl. Cream the butter in a separate bowl. Add 1 cup of sugar to the butter and gradually beat until the mixture is blended, 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the eggs to the creamed butter mixture one at a time, beating well in between additions. Beat in the dry ingredients and sour cream alternately, beginning and ending in flour. Add the vanilla.
In a separate bowl, combine the chocolate, walnuts, the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon.
Sprinkle a third of the chocolate and nut mixture over the greased pan. Pour in half of the cake batter. Sprinkle more of the chocolate and nut mixture over the batter, reserving some for the top. Pour the remaining batter into the pan. Smooth it out evenly and top with the remainder of the chocolate and nut mixture.
Bake for 45 minutes. Cool. Remove from the pan to a rack.

I would give this cake 10 stars if I could! It's delicious, moist and definitely a keeper...I made one today and will make another for work tomorrow. Even though I'm not much of a cake eater, I keep gong back for just one more piece. This is one you want to share with your friends and loved ones. I love the show and I really think Cooking Channel should give Ruth her own show...she's great!

Thank you Ruth ! This cake was excellent. Unfortunately, I made this during a blizzard and ate 1/3 before I came to my senses and brought the rest to my neighbor. Skipped the walnuts because I hate them, otherwise, perfection. This recipe is now in my permanent recipe box noted "c/o Ruth Teig".

My family really enjoyed this cake. I will definitely make it again. I think this recipe can be made a little bit different ingredients, instead of chocolate pieces I might substitute cocoa powder, or fruit of some kind like apples, pumpkin almost anything might work. I enjoy recipes that adapt to the seasons. I will be bring this cake to family get togethers I know everyone will enjoy it.
