This is the classical German marbled cake. There are several recipes for marbled cakes posted here on food.com but none is the authentic one, somewhat similar to a pound cake.

Time 1h30m

Yield 16 pieces, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 lb butter, softened
1/2 lb sugar
3 large eggs
1 lb cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk
1 ounce cocoa
3/4 ounce sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 dash salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a bundt cake pan.
  • Beat butter and sugar together, then add vanilla, eggs and salt.
  • Combine flour and baking powder and stir into butter-sugar-egg mixture, alternating with the milk. Only add enough milk for the batter to drop heavily and ripping apart from a spoon.
  • Fill 2/3 of the batter into the greased cake pan.
  • Mix the remaining batter with cocoa, sugar and 2 or 3 tablespoons milk, until batter again drops heavily and ripping apart from a spoon.
  • Pour cocoa batter on top of the light one and move a fork spiralling through the two layers, so that you get a marbled pattern.
  • Bake for about 75 minutes.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste. I might try adding some extra butter or oil next time.

I had some trouble getting the cake to marble properly. The chocolate batter seemed to sink to the bottom of the pan.

I found this cake to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This cake was a little more dense than I expected, but it was still very good.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, but I loved this cake. The chocolate flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the vanilla.

This cake is a great way to use up leftover sour cream. It adds a nice tanginess to the cake.
