Delicious and Moist Marbled Bundt Cake

Bundt cake is a cake that is baked in a bundt pan giving it a traditional donut shape with a hole in the center. Bundt cake (in my opinion) is one of the best desserts to serve with a cup of coffee or hot tea. From vanilla to chocolate and lemon to red velvet, bundt cakes are generally not associated with any one particular cake recipe.

For this cake recipe, we combined just a bit of cocoa powder into the batter at the very end giving the cake a slightly marbled look.

Allow the cake to cool completely before sprinkling the top with sifted icing sugar. This step is of course optional but what a beautiful textured effect is makes over the cake. Serve and enjoy!
