How to Make Chocolate Pumpkin Marble Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Divide the batter in half.
- **Pumpkin Batter:** In one bowl, combine ½ of the creamed mixture with 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon ground cloves.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- **Chocolate Batter:** In the other bowl, combine the remaining ½ of the creamed mixture with 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Gradually add 1 cup buttermilk to the chocolate batter, alternating with the remaining flour mixture, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined.
- Spoon half of the pumpkin batter into the prepared bundt pan.
- Dollop half of the chocolate batter over the pumpkin batter.
- Repeat layers with remaining pumpkin and chocolate batters.
- Using a butter knife, gently swirl the batters together, creating a marble effect.
- Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- **Chocolate Glaze:** In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (double boiler), combine 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips, ½ cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons light corn syrup.
- Stir until smooth and melted.
- Pour the warm glaze over the cooled cake, letting it drip down the sides.
- Sprinkle with chopped peanuts (optional).
- Let the glaze set for at least 2 hours, or chill for 30 minutes before serving.
