How to Make Chocolate Intrigue Marble Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients to the creamed butter mixture, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Pour two-thirds of the batter into the prepared tube pan.
  8. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining batter with 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/2 cup chocolate syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. Mix until well combined.
  9. Spoon the chocolate batter over the white batter in the pan.
  10. Do not mix the batters! Using a knife or toothpick, gently swirl the batters together creating a marble effect.
  11. Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  13. Once completely cool, frost with your favorite frosting.
