In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and cocoa powder. Add the cocoa powder mixture to the butter mixture and mix until combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined. Slowly add the hot water and mix until smooth.
