Marble Bundt Cake
This year Children’s Day marked the 125th birth anniversary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru (Chacha Nehru). Though belated here’s wishing all our children a very Happy Children’s Day! 🙂 I treated my son, Nehal and his friends to his favorite, Marble Bundt Cake, on this occasion . A simple, no frills, easy recipe for kids with vanilla and chocolate as the primary flavors.

Those of you who are absolutely new to the nuances of baking might ask what is a marble bundt cake? Its nothing but vanilla cake batter that is swirled with dark chocolate cake batter in a bundt pan and baked to perfection. Learn more about bundt pans. I followed award winning chef Sarabeth’s marble bundt cake recipe which is a keeper. An unbeatable flavor with a tender texture, nice crust and tastes better as it ages. An addictive cake that will have your friends swoon and ask you to bring it for every get-together you attend for the rest of your life. And its no exaggeration!
Marble Chocolate Bundt Cake
Marbling the batter is easy peasy. Just spoon the vanilla batter and chocolate batter in a random manner and swirl a chopstick through the batter to create a marble effect. If you do not like to serve a plain cake, sprinkle some powdered sugar or pour a thin chocolate glaze or ganache all over and you are good to go. Honestly, this marble bundt cake needs no adornment. Just slice through and serve a piece of the marbled beauty with a cup of coffee for the adults and a glass of milk for the kids. You can halve the recipe and make a loaf cake. And cake baking enthusiasts, if you haven’t yet invested in a bundt pan then I strongly recommend you buy one.
