Ingredients
  

  • 10-inch Bundt pan
  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • All-purpose flour (a little for dusting the pan and 2½ cups for the batter)
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon table salt
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 12 tablespoon room temperature unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate
  • 1 tablespoon corn syrup

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).
  2. Begin by preparing the Bundt pan. Spray it with non-stick cooking spray and lightly dust with all-purpose flour to prevent sticking. Set the pan aside.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2½ cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon table salt. Set this flour mixture aside.
  4. Using a stand mixer, combine 2 cups of granulated sugar, 12 tablespoon of room temperature unsalted butter, and ¼ cup of vegetable oil. Mix until the mixture is creamy and well incorporated. Scrape the bottom of the bowl to ensure no lumps remain.
  5. Add 4 large eggs and 1 tablespoon of pure vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until the batter is thick and pale in color.
  6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the batter, alternating with 1 cup of whole milk. Mix only until combined; avoid overmixing.
  7. Pour ⅔ of the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, using a spatula to spread it evenly.
  8. To the remaining batter, add ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder. Mix until the cocoa powder is fully incorporated.
  9. Spoon the chocolate batter over the plain batter in the pan, then use a spatula to gently spread and swirl the two batters together.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  11. Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then carefully transfer it to a platter.
  12. While the cake is cooling, prepare the chocolate ganache. In a saucepan over medium heat, heat ⅔ cup of heavy cream until it simmers. Remove from heat and pour over 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate. Add 1 tablespoon of corn syrup and stir until smooth and glossy.
  13. Once the cake is completely cooled, place a platter over the Bundt pan and invert to release the cake.
  14. Drizzle the prepared chocolate ganache over the cake, allowing it to flow down the sides.
  15. Serve and enjoy your delectable marble cake with a rich chocolate ganache glaze!
