This Chocolate Orange Marble Cake Is The Best Thing We’ve Had This Week

The step-by-step directions may look a little long but if you follow these precicly then you will be okay.

Let's Get Started…

The Ingredients To Gather:

  • 1 3/4 cups (250 grams or 8.8 ounces) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups (250 grams or 8.8 ounces) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (1 orange should be enough)
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest (1-2 oranges)
  • 1/4 cup (57 grams or 2 ounces) butter, melted and cooled
  • 1/3 cup canola oil (or vegetable, safflower)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon orange extract (optional)
  • 4 ounces (113 grams) bittersweet chocolate, melted

The Delicious & Simple Instructions To Follow:

  1. Preheat oven to 350
  2. In a large bowl sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add sugar and mix. Set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the buttermilk, orange juice and zest, melted butter, oil and vanilla and orange extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Do not over mix – the less you mix, the lighter the cake will be.
  4. Divide batter into two and fold the melted chocolate to one of the two mixtures.
  5. Dollop the orange and chocolate mixtures alternately into the pan first, next to each other, then, in layers on top of each other. When done, insert a knife to the mixture (all the way down) and start swirling the batter. Don’t mix to the point where all the batter turns chocolaty.
  6. Bake for about 40-45 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Finished!
