Steps
To prepare the coffee and cocoa marble bundt cake, you don’t need to be an expert baker, just a few ingredients, a stand mixer or a simple bowl, a bundt pan, and a pinch of patience.
In the bowl of the stand mixer, gather the eggs and sugar, turn on the whisk and let it work until the eggs become light and frothy.
Continue whisking while adding the oil followed by the milk.
Once the liquids are perfectly mixed, add the dry ingredients.
Gradually add the mix of flour, starch, and baking powder with a pinch of salt.
Once the dry ingredients are incorporated and the batter is smooth and homogeneous, divide it equally into two bowls.
In one bowl, add the coffee and stir until fully absorbed, while in the second bowl, add the sifted unsweetened cocoa and combine it with the base mixture, adding a bit more milk (2 tbsps).
When both mixtures are ready, layer them alternately in a previously greased 9.5-inch bundt pan.
Finish by adding dark chocolate shavings on top of the coffee and cocoa marble bundt cake.
Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 35-40 minutes, performing the toothpick test before removing from the oven.
Allow the coffee and cocoa marble bundt cake to cool on a wire rack before removing from the pan and slicing 😉.
Storage
The coffee and cocoa marble bundt cake keeps well for up to three days under a cake dome.
