Chocolate Marble Cake

One of those classic cakes deserving of resurrection! Best if just thinly iced with your favorite ganache.

  • 3 oz Unsweetened chocolate, melted
  • 1/4 c sugar
  • 1/4 c boiling water
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 3 c sifted cake flour
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 oz butter, softened
  • 2 c sugar
  • 1 c milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 6 egg whites

Spray two 9" round cake pans and line bottom with parchment. Preheat oven to 375 F.

Combine melted chocolate with the 1/4 cup sugar and boiling water. Add baking soda and stir until thickened. Cool.

Sift flour once before measuring then add baking powder and salt and sift three times more. Set aside.

Cream butter and sugar until white and fluffy. Add flour alternately with milk beating until smooth after each addition. Add vanilla.

Beat egg whites to moist peaks. Stir quickly but thoroughly into batter.

Pour half of batter into another bowl and add chocolate mixture. With ice cream scoop (or large spoon) alternate light and dark batters then marbleize by cutting through batters with knife.

Bake for approximately 35 minutes.
