Rich and buttery homemade Marble Cake Recipe. It is great with a cup of coffee or tea and I love it whenever I need a quick sweet bite. Every bite is chocolaty and sweet. Make it at home today!
With swirls of tender vanilla and fudgy chocolate cake, it looks fancy but tastes like pure old-fashioned goodness, and it appeals to kids and grown-ups alike.
Surprisingly, you don’t need two completely different batters to make marble cake; the chocolate batter is made from vanilla batter. You simply take a third of the vanilla batter and mix it with cocoa powder and that’s your chocolate batter! Be careful not to over-marble the batters or the flavours will get muddled; a few swirls around the pan with a knife will do the trick.
Most recipes for marble cake call solely for cooking chocolate for the chocolate portion of the cake. I like to add real coco powder. Just mix two tablespoons of hot with the coco powder. It’s a simple way of making.
To make it richer, you can frost it with chocolate buttercream frosting. Have a great time with marble cake and a strong cup of coffee☕!! Unbelievable…
