Marble Cake

I have this recipe from a neighbor I got together with for coffee many years ago. I love it because it’s so plain, but so moist . . . and very good with a cup of coffee.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 c sugar
1 c butter, room temperature
4 eggs
1/2 c whipping cream
1/2 c sour cream
3 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup milk
½ cup baking cocoa

Method:

1. Prepare a tube or bundt pan for the whole recipe. For a small 9X9 pan, use half the recipe.
2. Mix sugar and butter well, beating in the eggs, then the whip cream and sour cream.
3. Mix dry ingredients, then add to batter alternately with milk, until smooth.
4. Pour 1/2 the batter into greased pan.
5. Mix the rest of the batter with cocoa and pour on top. You can just leave it or run through it with a knife (once around the circle in a tube pan).
6. Bake tube pan at 350 F about 55 - 60 min. Small recipe about 35 – 40 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
7. Cool in tube pan for 10 minutes before removing. Dust with icing sugar when cool.
