Nannie's Marble Cake image

My granmother was German and made this cake and I have very fond memories of eating this with her at the dining room table talking away the troubles of a young girls day. LOL Lots of butter and eggs. Not a low cal low carb cake but its soooo good. I had to sit and watch her make this stopping her to trya and measure this recipe out. This makes 1 bundt cake or 6 muffins.

I had some trouble getting the cake to rise properly. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the cake ended up being a bit dense.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
