A very fun take on a marble cake….
The effect is easy to create: thin vanilla and chocolate cake batters are alternately poured into the centre of a round cake pan. The process isn’t difficult, but takes some time as you’re using ¼ cup and 2 tbsp increments of batter respectively. You can save a little time by increasing the size of the batter increments…you’ll have fewer, but more dramatic stripes. I may do that next time.
The cake bakes up moist and, though I would have preferred a more intense chocolate flavour, the overall flavour of the cake was good.
The cake was a huge hit and is something I will definitely make again. In fact, I think this would make a wonderful birthday cake….I see 2 or even 3 layers paired with a milk chocolate ganache buttercream…….
