My husband s favorite cake is marble so i thought i could make one from scratch.
Marble cupcake recipe from scratch.
It s a fine plain cake that gets better when you use it as the base for a two tone two flavor marble cake.
Place chopped chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.
Instead of the cake mix kind.
Lucky for both you and me these cupcakes are a snap to make.
1 1 2 teaspoons baking powder.
1 1 2 cups all purpose flour.
Rather you ll simply make my trusted vanilla cupcake recipe and add cocoa powder to part of its batter.
Spray or lightly butter two 9 inch cake pans.
The eggs and butter should be room temperature the butter and sugar need to be whisked for a certain period of time etc.
With a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment beat the butter on high speed in a large bowl until smooth and creamy about 1 minute.
2 large eggs at room temperature.
I looked everywhere online and found that different sights had this same recipe.
First you do not have to make a vanilla cupcake batter and a chocolate cupcake batter.
1 4 teaspoon fine salt.
Heat oven to 350ºf.
I highly recommend following every step as written.
Achieving the perfect marble cake recipe from scratch is worth every step in the process i promise.

Repeat with remaining cake layers.
