Ingredients
Ingredients
butter
3/4 cup (softened)
sugar
1 1/2 cups (granulated)
eggs
3 (large)
vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons
milk
3/4 cup
flour
2 1/2 cups (all-purpose)
baking powder
2 teaspoons
chocolate syrup
1/2 cup (such as Quik or Brown Cow)
baking soda
1/4 teaspoon
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a 12-cup bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
2
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the softened butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
3
Pour in the vanilla extract, then gradually add the milk while continuing to mix until fully incorporated, about 1 more minute.
4
In another bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet batter in 3 to 4 portions, mixing just until combined and no flour streaks remain.
5
Pour roughly 2/3 of the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing it out with a spatula.
6
In the remaining batter, mix in the chocolate syrup and baking soda. Blend with the mixer until just combined.
7
Spoon the chocolate batter evenly over the white batter in the bundt pan, and use a spatula or knife to gently swirl the two batters together, creating a marbled pattern without completely blending them.
8
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 75 minutes. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the thickest part comes out clean.
9
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack. Let it cool completely before dusting with icing sugar before serving.
