Chocolate Almond Marbled Bundt Cake Recipes

MARBLE BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or with an electric mixer), beat together butter and sugar until well-combined.
• Add eggs one at time, mixing well after each addition.
• Stir in 1 tablespoon vanilla until combined.
• Mix in buttermilk until well-combined.
• Add cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Stir in on low just until incorporated.
• Scoop out 2 ½ cups of the batter, and place it into a separate bowl.
• Stir cocoa powder and milk into the 2 ½ cups of batter until well-combined.
• Add remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to original batter.
• Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, drop one scoop of plain batter into prepared bundt pan.
• Using a separate scoop, drop 1/4 cup of chocolate batter on top of plain batter.
• Continue to alternate between plain and chocolate batters until both batters are gone.
• Give the pan a couple of taps to level out the batter, if necessary. Do not stir.
• Bake for 50-70 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Cool cake in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
• Invert the cake onto wire rack, and cool completely.

CHOCOLATE & ALMOND MARBLED BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Thoroughly brush a 1.5 litre bundt tin with melted butter.
• Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Stir in the almond extract.
• Mix together the baking powder, flour and ground almonds. Beat in one egg at a time, adding a spoonful of the flour mixture in between. Repeat until all three eggs have been added, then fold in the remaining flour mixture and stir in the milk.
• Spoon half of the cake batter into a separate bowl and mix in the cocoa paste. Add the chocolate chips to the other half of the mixture. Add spoonfuls of each of the batters alternately to the tin and drag the handle of a teaspoon through the mixture to create a marbled effect.
• Bake for around 40 minutes and then test the cake to see if a skewer inserted into the deepest part comes out clean. The cake will take 40 - 50 mins, depending on the proportions of your bundt tin.
• Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack. Once cooled, dust the cake with a little icing sugar.
