Cooking Steps:
For the Vanilla Cake Batter:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan or two round cake pans.
Step 2: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3: In another large bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Step 4: Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
Step 5: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
For the Chocolate Cake Batter:
Step 6: In a small bowl, dissolve cocoa powder in hot water. Add instant coffee if using. Let it cool slightly.
Step 7: Take 2 cups of the prepared vanilla cake batter and mix it with the cocoa mixture, creating the chocolate cake batter.
For Assembly:
Step 8: Spoon alternating dollops of vanilla and chocolate batter into the prepared pan(s).
Step 9: Use a knife or skewer to swirl the batters together, creating a marbled effect.
Step 10: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes for a bundt cake or 25-30 minutes for round cakes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 11: Allow the cake(s) to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12: Optionally, dust the cooled cake with cocoa powder or drizzle with chocolate ganache.
Step 13: Serve The Ultimate Marbled Cake slices as-is or with a dollop of whipped cream or a layer of vanilla frosting.
