Add the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, and salt to a bowl and mix. Add the eggs one by one and incorporate the sour cream. Continue whisking with a balloon whisk. Pour the cake batter into 2 greased 20 cm diameter pans. Bake at 180 °C for 30 minutes. Let cool and unmold. For the chocolate frosting: mix the condensed milk with the cocoa, bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the butter and mix in. Let cool. Mix the chocolate syrup with the coffee liqueur and set aside. Cut the cakes in half to obtain 4 pieces; using a brush, moisten each cake layer with a bit of syrup. Fill with frosting to form the 4 layers. Decorate with a spoon to create the characteristic grooves of the famous Costco-style chocolate cake.
