Ingrediënten

Makes 16 servings.

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup butter or margarine softened
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 ½ cups cake flour
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • ¼ cup cocoa
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

Instructies

  • Grease or spray 10-inch tube pan or bundt pan; set aside.
  • In a large bowl with mixer at low speed, beat sugar and butter or margarine until blended.
  • Increase speed to high; beat until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs and milk; beat until well mixed.
  • Add flour and remaining ingredients except cocoa; at low speed, beat until well mixed, constantly scraping bowl with rubber spatula.
  • Increase speed to high and beat batter 4 minutes longer, occasionally scraping bowl with rubber spatula.
  • Preheat oven to 350º.
  • Remove about 2 ½ cups batter (about half) to medium bowl.
  • With wire whisk or fork, beat cocoa into batter in medium bowl until well blended.
  • Alternately spoon vanilla and chocolate batters into prepared pan.
  • With blade of knife, cut and twist through batters in a zig-zag pattern to obtain marbled effect.
  • Only go around the pan once.
  • Bake one hour or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean.
  • Cool cake in pan on wire rack 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely on rack.
  • Slices best after cooling.
  • Recipe may be halved for use in an 8-inch, 6 cup bundt pan; reduce baking time to 45 minutes.
  • I like to make this in a bundt pan–put it on a plate crusty side up when cooled.
