BETH’S CHOCOLATE MARBLE POUND CAKE RECIPE
Makes 1 Bundt Cake (serves 12)
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup (240g) butter, softened
2 ½ cups (500 g) sugar
6 eggs, room temperature
1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla
2 ¾ cups (330 g) sifted flour
1 tsp (5ml) salt
1 tsp (5 ml) baking soda
1 cup sour cream (240 ml), room temperature
8 oz (230 g) bitter-sweet chocolate, melted
FOR GLAZE:
6 oz (169 g) semi-sweet chocolate
½ cup (120 ml) heavy cream
2 tbsp (30 ml) chopped pecans
METHOD:
Preheat oven to 350F(176C) degrees.
Spray Bundt pan with baking spray.
Whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda and set aside.
Cream together butter and sugar until very light and fluffy.About 5-7 mins.
Add the eggs to the butter mixture, 1 at a time. For a quick way to warm up eggs to room temperature, place them in a bowl with warm water for 5 mins while butter is creaming together).
Add the eggs 1 at a time, scrapping down the bowl as needed, so that the eggs are well incorporated.
Then add the flour mixture to the batter in thirds, alternating with a spoonful of the sour cream. just until combined, being careful not to over mix! (or your cake will be tough)
Separate half of the batter and put it in a separate bowl. To that stir in the melted chocolate until combined.
Spoon in batter with an ice cream scoop alternating plain and chocolate scoops all the way around the Bundt pan, creating a second layer on top, also alternating flavors.
Run a knife through the batter balls in a circular fashion, creating a marble design. Be careful not to "over swirl" or you'll mix the batter too much and you won't get good marbling.
Smooth out the batter on top of the cake once swirling is done.
Bake for 45-50 mins. It’s done when a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool completely. Reverse from mold and place on a sheet pan, fitted with a cooling rack.
GANACHE:
Place chocolate and cream in a small sauce pan, heat until combined and smooth. If you feel you need to thin the chocolate a bit in order to drizzle better just add 1 tsp of vegetable oil until consistency is ideal.
Ladle melted chocolate over cooled cake, top with chopped pecans and allow to set.
Serve with vanilla ice cream or homemade whipped cream! Enjoy! :)

This was a HUGE hit with my co-workers! It was super moist and delicious.
Tried this recipe and it was good..i made half the recipe in a spring form pan and topped it off with chocolate cheesecake frosting!
Beth I just love all of your recipes ! I tried this for the first time today and it was a success and tasted so good ! Thanks for sharing all your wonderful recipes. Also because I’m in Asia the cup sizes may differ so your measurements translated in grams really helps ! Thanks Beth.
Of course! I realize half my audience is outside the US so I always try to include the metric conversions as well! I'm so glad it was such a hit! :)
I made this cake today and it was a totally success! Thank you for the recipe!!!
+Michooso YAY! So glad it was a hit! :)
I cannot thank you enough! I’ve made this for my mom’s dinner parties over and over again- the amount of times people have told me to start a baking business is insane! If anyone is looking for a sign to make this- let me be your sign. DO IT! 🤍🤍
Awww so glad you have enjoyed it! Yummy right?!
You really should consider writing a cookbook. Your recipes are always very easy to follow, and they have never failed me. Most importantly, your dessert's recipes that I had tried before never turned out too sweet 😋🙏🏻 Can't wait for your next video to come out Beth ❤️

this is the best marble cake ever!! made it with my 5 year old. its not completely cols yet but we already tried. thanx
+Chantal Lindhout YAY! Hope you enjoy! :)
The best cake I ever made !! 😋
Tested my oven. It's perfectly at 350. There are two possibilities for what when wrong. I baked the cake on a sheet pan (as is my habit). As it was so wet and messy after it flipped out of my hands, I'm wondering if I added to much melted chocolate to the chocolate batter. I'm not used to baking with chocolate bars. The sheet pan really shouldn't make that much difference. Anyhoo ... The cake is fantastic!!! Great results on my second try yesterday. It is moist and delicious, not too sweet, just perfectly lovely! The pecans really top it off! It's gorgeous and delicious!!! Thanks Beth
+Becky Schuckenbrock Ahh yes it could have been too much chocolate. But so glad to know it finally turned out on the second try! :) YAY! So glad you enjoyed it too! And yes the pecans are really the "piece de resistance!" ha! :)
Thank you for this beautiful and yummy recipe. I arrived to your channel trying to learn English, because I needed to practice and, surprisingly, I am not only learning the language by listening your perfect explanations, but I am learning to cook too. Thank you!! :)

@@EntertainingWithBeth can we make with oil?
Beth, love the cake. It is moist.
Looks delicious! Just an idea for a halloween party: maybe adding some orange food coloring to the vanilla batter or pumpkin puree, and topping it with candy corn pieces instead of nuts!
Great idea!
Hi, Beth. That looks just delicious and mouthwatering. You are really talented and wonderful when it comes to desserts. Maybe one-day, I would love to see a video on caramel apple crumble since it is apple season. See ya next week, Beth. Byron. ;-)
+Byron Chandler Aww thanks Byron :) I do love my desserts! Ha! Must be my horrible sweet tooth ha! Here's a great caramel apple dessert you may like, really easy too! ua-cam.com/video/QnQ--Wl1Ly4/v-deo.html see you next week!
+Entertaining With Beth can i use yogurt instead of sour cream?
Definitely will try it
Love love your recipes and u r amaizing
amazing!
My cousin love marble cake. May make this soon :)
love you and love your recipes
Thanks Beth for all yr delicious recipes. I wld like to know why is it some of recipes use baking soda and some use baking powder does it make a big difference.? Thank you for yr patience and time. God bless all d way from Trinidad and Tobago in d Caribbean.
It's such a great question! I typically use baking powder for cakes, muffins etc and baking soda for quick breads, and some bundt cakes like this. Baking soda works better when there is acidic in the batter, like in this case we have the acidic cocoa powder. It makes it rise quicker. I also use it with cookies, since the baking soda makes them chewier :) . Hope that helps! And what a lovely place you get to live in :) . I'm sure the Caribbean is so beautiful! :)
Thanks Beth for your quick response it really helped alot. God bless please come visit our twin islands some day you and yr family will love it. Take care
What a cool cake stand
This looks great!
Thanks Beth:)
For my birthday, i almost always eat marble cake because its soo good!! Also, i have a twin sister, and we can never decide what flavor to eat haha
amazing .... will try out that soon.... i love the background song in the last part... what is the title of that song ?...
I love marbled desserts \o/
Hello ☺️ can i not use the sour cream or use something different? We dont have it here where i live
Hi Beth I would love to make this cake but where I live i am not finding bakers chocolate just the nestle toll house morsels can I melt those and used that in the cake please for your help
Beth I love pound cakes!! Can you do more lunch ideas? I am running out of ideas!
Hi Beth. Thank you for your wonderful recipes. I love this marble cake and have baked it many times. Your cakes have always been my familys favorite.
I was wondering if this cake could be converted into a chocolate cake. If yes, please do suggest the proportions. I shall wait for your reply🙂
You are so welcome! I'm so glad you enjoy them! For an all chocolate version try this recipe! IT's SO good!! ua-cam.com/video/Cn-CxnMwpVg/v-deo.html
Hi Beth! That looks delicious 😋. Where did you buy the cake stand? It's soo beautiful. Thanks!
+Rhina Flores Sure I found it on Amazon and thought it was so cute! :) Here's the link: www.amazon.com/dp/B00BABNM1W/ref=xprt_ar_bd_dp_4
+Entertaining With Beth Thank You! 😊
what is that song at the end? its awesome!
this looks sooo yummy;)
Beth, you're awesomeeeeeee 😁😁
Beth, I love this! Will have to try it. Where did you get that cake stand?!
+sarahw1225 oh sure I found it on Amazon :) Here's the link! www.amazon.com/dp/B00BABNM1W/ref=xprt_ar_bd_dp_4
+Entertaining With Beth Thank you so much!!
Thank you always for the great yummy recipes! I can't wait to try this one. I don't have a bundt pan.. Can I try making this in cupcakes? if so how should I adjust the oven temp and the baking time?
+MeeSun Hong Oh sure you could do that. They should bake at 400F (200C) for just about 17-20 mins. They're done when a toothpick comes out clean :)
Hi Beth, the cake looks delicious!!! I am planning to make it and I want to know if I can use self raising flour instead of a.p and soda?Thank you in advance 🌸
Oh sure you could do that and then just omit the soda in the recipe :) Hope you enjoy!
Thanks again Beth.
Looks really yummy:)
Thanks alot Beth for sharing this recipe, looks delicious. I have 2 questions please. Can I use normal springform pan or is it going to be thick and not fluffy ? And I don't have chocolate right now can I substitute it with 2 full tbsp of raw unsweetened cocoa powder ? 🌹
أنتي إنسانه جدآ راقيه أرجو ان تصلي للمليون مشترك 💐💐💐👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Beth can I use baking powder instead of baking soda
That cake stand is adorable!! Where is it from?
+Soha Q oh sure I found it on Amazon. Isn't it cute? :) Here's the link! www.amazon.com/dp/B00BABNM1W/ref=xprt_ar_bd_dp_4
I really need to invest in an electric mixer. This looks so good!!!
HEY BETH! I have allergies to eggs. Is there any replacements? would this recipe work with baking soda?
Looks delicious. Your videos look so professional! Can I cut down on the sugar? It seems like it would be a little too sweet?
+1370np I know it does doesn't it! I thought so too when I first "inherited" this recipe from my Grandmother. I made it with 1 cup, not enough flavor, 1.5 still not great...until I worked my way up all the way to 2.5 as she noted. Ha! The thing is there are so many eggs and a large amount of flour and sour cream, that it actually balances it all out. I don't like desserts that are too sweet and I think the sweetest is just right. But you could go through the same exercise and try less before adding more :)
Hey beth. Such a great cake. I always enjoy your recipes. Do you think instead of marble I can put oreos and make it cookies and cream cake ?
+Renee Andrews hmmm I'm not really sure what that would do? I think it should be OK. But hey only one way to find out right? :) If you try it let me know what it turns out like, because now I'm curious! Ha!
+Entertaining With Beth o Beth your grandmother sure did know what she was doing!!! I tried the cookies and cream!!! It was deciduous!!! added 1 1/2 -2 cups of chopped oreos and it came out great!!! I will be using this recipe for all my pound cake creations. Thank you so much. love from the Caribbean-Trinidad and Tobago.
That looks insanely beautiful!! I love marbled cakes because it's one of those desserts where you don't need to add much else to it, it's just awesome by itself ;)
Hi Beth, i'm planning to make 2 batches of this cake tomorrow in loaf pans, how much batter do you recommend to put in each pan? should I put around 3/4 full in each loaf pan?
+nashrah ismail Correct I wouldn't go higher than 3/4 of the way full :) Enjoy!
+Entertaining With Beth Thank you so much Beth, everyone loved it. I was looking for a pound cake recipe for my dad and he didn't really enjoy the cakes I baked previously, but he loved this one.
Beth! I love you! Not in a weird way! In a sisterly way!! Don't know, you just scream "sister" to me!!
QUESTION: I want to try this ... looks awesome! In the DRY ingredients, you say add BAKING SODA. Just wanted confirmation that this is correct. In the video, it looks like a canister of baking powder. The chocolate on top and pecans looks so awesome! It looks like the perfect game day cake!! Go TCU FROGS!
+Becky Schuckenbrock Correct Baking Soda. Funny because it does look like a baking powder can :) But that's how Trader Joe's packages it :) Enjoy!
May I know what size bundt cake pan you used for this recipe? Thanks
Hi Beth, do you think I can reduce the sugar by half?
I think this is just a great dessert idea, not just Halloween :)
Does anyone know the title of the song at the end of the video?
It isn't the first time you use it, and i love it as much as i love marble cakes
hahaha i must say not the most scary cake 😂😂 lol
+PigeonGeek hahaha good one and so true 😂👌🏽
iik
Paulina K. It's the best marble cake ever. Most marble cakes I made before were very dry. These cakes are lovely to have as treats occasionally. I cook all my meals from scratch, heavy on vegetables and fish, no pizza or cheese, processed, frozen, takeaway or fast food as I'm Asian. But I'm no fanatic so I treat myself to sweets once in a while. Everything in moderation.
Yummm.. As always Beth, it looks amazing.. Can u plzz make hazelnut and orange biscotti or even just plain.. Luv from London UK xxx
+N S Khanum Oh sure. He's a chocolate hazelnut biscotti I did last year that you might enjoy :) So yummy! Ahhh how I love London :) Hope it's not too rainy there? Wish we could also get that clotted cream over here! Ha! Nothing compares sigh....ua-cam.com/video/ORe2PxooXEg/v-deo.html
+Entertaining With Beth Thank u Beth.. If I want to take out the chocolate from the biscotti, wud I put more sugar or vanilla essence?? It's not raining every single day yet.. Have u ever tried Cornish ice cream??
Waw verry cood 😍😘
