Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 3 large Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Milk
• 3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
• 0.25 cups Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan or ring mold to ensure the cake releases easily.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients alternately with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined after each addition.

Step 6

Remove 1 cup of the batter and place it in a separate bowl. Add the cocoa powder to this portion and stir until fully incorporated to create the cocoa batter.

Step 7

Pour half of the plain batter into the prepared bundt pan, then add spoonfuls of the cocoa batter over it. Pour the remaining plain batter over the top.

Step 8

Using a skewer or knife, gently swirl through the batters to create a marbled effect, being careful not to overmix the layers.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Optionally, dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving to add a decorative finish.
