Girls Night Out x-mas: Marble Cake






I am apart of a group of wonderful girls who celebrate a girls night out once a month. Most of us have known eachother for over three years. It's great because we can also meet new girls with similar interests.



We have a game where you can trade gifts. Instead of buying something I baked a marble cake. This cake is really easy to make since I use duncan hines extra moist yellow cake mix.



After you follow the ingredients on the box for mixing.
Pour the batter into a square pan. Do not scrape the bowl.

(What ever is left in your mixing bowl will need to be reserved.) You will need 1/4 cup of cocoa powder. Pour it into your mixing bowl. Scrape the sides of the bowl and mix the left over batter with the cocoa powder. Mix the reserve batter with the cocoa until the cocoa has completely dissolved. Pour the chocolate mixture on top of the cake batter that is in the cake pan. You will want to pour the chocolate in swirly motion. You can mix the chocolate in the the batter even more by using a bamboo skewer or toothpick. Be sure not to over mix because you may loose the 'marble' effect.



This is what your cake will look like after baking and cut into squares:
