THE BEST MARBLE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Spray Bundt cake with non-stick.
• Microwave chocolate with 20-30 sec intervals. Stir and repeat until most of the chocolate is melt but not all (usually takes 1 minute). I usually do not let it melt completely, which creates a nice effect in the cake.
• Combine cake mix, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, vegetable oil, sugar and water. Beat on high for around 3 minutes.
• Stir third of the batter into the melted chocolate, mix well.
• Spread half of the vanilla batter in the pan, then the chocolate batter and then the rest of the vanilla batter. Swirl the batters with a butter knife to create the marble effect.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, cool for 20 minutes in pan, remove from pan and cool completely.
• For the icing: melt the chocolate and butter (you can do this in the microwave as well, but be careful).
• Cool the mix for 5-10 minutes, add sour cream and then the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time.
• Spread the icing on the cake when it has cooled completely.

MARBLE LOAF CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 9x5 inch loaf pan with baking spray.
• Beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed a full 3 minutes, until batter is light and fluffy. Pour 1 cup batter into small bowl and stir in cocoa from small mix packet.
• Pour half of yellow batter into pan, half of fudge batter over followed by remaining yellow batter and remaining fudge batter. Use toothpick to gently swirl batters together in a figure 8 pattern. Tap pan on counter a few times to release air bubbles.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool on wire rack in loaf pan for 20 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool completely on wire rack.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl heat heavy cream for 30 seconds or until hot. Add chocolate chips to cream. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow to sit for 1 minute. Whisk cream and chocolate chips together until smooth. Pour ganache on top of loaf cake, smoothing out toward the edges. Let stand until ganache is set. Slice and serve.
