Description

A moist and decadent Marble Bundt Cake that beautifully swirls together rich chocolate and classic vanilla flavors, creating a stunning dessert perfect for any special occasion.


Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour, sifted

2½ cups granulated sugar

1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature

5 large eggs, at room temperature

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

For the chocolate swirl:

⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

½ cup whole milk, at room temperature


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 12-cup bundt pan with baking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  6. Alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk to the batter, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix just until combined.
  7. In a separate bowl, combine ½ of the batter with the cocoa powder and milk. Mix until smooth to create the chocolate batter.
  8. Using a ¼ cup measuring cup or ice cream scoop, alternate adding dollops of vanilla and chocolate batter into the prepared bundt pan. Once all batter is added, use a knife to swirl the batters together in an "S" pattern for a marbled effect.
  9. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 20 minutes. Then, invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Once cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy!
