Marble Bundt Cake




Today..... I decided to bake another Bundt. This time I went through more topics on Bundt Cakes . I did not wanted to repeat my mistakes of yesterday. So, i chose a very simple Vanilla Bundt Cake recipe from http://www.dianasdesserts.com/ .....and made it into a Marble Bundt Cake .......Also added a few choco-chips and baked it for a longer period. The cake was really looking good. Inverting and taking it out of the pan was a bit problem...but finally i succeeded.....The result was much much better.....I could see the grooves ....and it was looking beautiful.........Then i poured some home- made truffle sauce over it.........and it became heavenly.......!!!

This was a very light cake with less butter and great taste. Everybody loved it......!!

My personal experience says -
  • Bundt cake recipies should be denser, have less of air bubbles.
  • They should be baked for a longer period in comparison with normal cake tins to give a bright color.
