This marble cake SWIRLS ITSELF and it is so soft and fluffy with buttermilk in the batter!
I LOVE IT! Very easy to make too!
I got this wonderful recipe from my dear friend Joan D. who is an excellent baker and cook who, like me, loves baking from scratch. She makes this beautiful cake in a standard size bundt pan and drizzles the top with a chocolate ganache. That is a really delicious way to serve it! I actually love it plain!
This recipe is a small, 6-serving size cake made in a 7-inch tube or Bundt pan.
Use the easy slider to double the recipe for a standard tube or Bundt size cake!
See pictures how to make it in the slideshow below.
Enjoy!
