Marble Cake

This marble cake is super easy to make and uses very simple ingredients that I think most of us already have in the kitchen. I've made it in a bundt pan and a loaf pan and both work. I guess it just depends what shape you like better.

Here's the loaf pan cake.

Here's the one I made in the bundt pan.

The loaf in the back is Banana Bread.

Marble Cake
Adapted from AllRecipes.com
Makes 12 servings

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray and flour your bundt or loaf pan and set aside. I also like to use parchment when I make anything in the loaf pan.
  2. Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, butter or margarine, eggs, vanilla, and milk in a large bowl.
  3. Beat on low to combine all the ingredients, then increase the speed to medium for about 2 minutes or until smooth. Transfer 3/4 cup of the batter to a smaller bowl and stir in the cocoa until well combined.
  4. Pour the white batter into your prepared pan, then drop spoonfuls of the chocolate batter on top. Use a skewer to swirl the two batters together into a marble pattern.
  5. Bake for about 30 minutes or until a tester comes out clean.
