Ingredients
- 350 g 2 ⅓ cup of "00" flour 2 ⅓ cup, "00"
- 200 g butter ~2 sticks, unsulted and at room temperature
- 240 g granulated sugar 1 ¼ cup
- 5 eggs medium and at room temperature
- 1 vanilla pod or 3 drops of vanilla flavoring
- 16 g baking powder 3 teaspoons
- 30 g cocoa powder 4 tablespoonss, unsweetened
- 150 ml milk ⅔ cup, fresh and whole
- 2 g salt ⅓ teaspoon
- powdered sugar for decoration
Instructions
- Place the softened butter in a bowl. Add the sugar. Beat together with an electric mixer for at least 10 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, break the eggs (at room temperature) and beat a little with a fork. Add the eggs a little at a time, in two or three batches, to the cream of butter and sugar, mixing well.
- When you have got a nice cream, add the salt and the milk (not cold), always continuing to mix.
- Sift the flour and baking powder. Then add them little by little to the mixture. Mix until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
- Divide the mixture in half into two separate bowls. In one, add the sifted cocoa powder and mix well. In the other bowl, add the seeds of one vanilla pod or 3 drops of vanilla essence.
- Butter the bundt pan. Pour the mixture in three layers. In the first layer, place 3 mounds of vanilla mixture. Then place the chocolate mixture between each vanilla mound. Make a second layer in the same way and then a third until you run out of batter.
- To make the marble cake, take a long wooden toothpick and sink it into the mixture. Then make two deep circles. This way the two colors will blend together and form stripes.
- Bake the Marble Bundt Cake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356 F) for about 50 minutes. To check if the cake is baked, test it with a toothpick before removing it from the oven. If the toothpick comes out clean and dry, the cake is done.
- Once baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve!
