  • 1/2 cup (113g) butter , room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (110g) vegetable oil
  • 1 ½ cup (300g) sugar

  • 2 ½ tsp (10g) baking powder

  • 1/3 cup (40g) cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup (80g) sour cream
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) milk

For Topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Butter and dust with flour a 9 or 10 inch (23-25cm) bundt pan.
  • In a large bowl whisk flour with salt and baking powder. Set aside.
  • In another bowl mix butter with sugar and vegetable oil until creamy. Incorporate eggs one at a time. Add vanilla extract and sour cream and mix to combine.
  • With the mixer on low, gradually incorporate flour mixture until all is well incorporated.
  • Reserve 2 cups (500g) of vanilla batter. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl mix cocoa powder with sour cream and milk. Add to the reserved 2 cups of vanilla batter. Mix to incorporate.
  • Pour about up to half of the vanilla batter into the prepared pan. Carefully add the chocolate batter. Gently cover with the remaining vanilla batter.
  • Use a knife to create swirls.
  • Bake for about 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If browns too fast, you can cover it with aluminum foil and continue baking.
  • Allow to cool slightly into the pan onto a rack for about 10-15 minutes. Invert and cool completely.
  • Dust with powdered sugar before serving or top with your favorite frosting.
