Scale
For the Cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- 1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan or loaf pan.
- 2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- 3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about three minutes).
- 4. Add Eggs and Milk: Add eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture while mixing on low speed. Gradually pour in the milk.
- 5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined to avoid overmixing. Split the batter into two bowls.
- 6. Create Chocolate Batter: Stir cocoa powder into one bowl of batter until fully incorporated.
- 7. Marble It Up!: Spoon dollops of vanilla and chocolate batter alternately into your prepared pan. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl them together.
- 8. Bake: Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for about 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow it to cool before slicing.
