Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 2 ½ cups
• Baking powder - 2 teaspoons
• Salt - ½ teaspoon
• Unsalted butter - 1 cup
• Granulated sugar - 2 cups
• Eggs - 4 large
• Vanilla extract - 2 teaspoons
• Milk - 1 cup
• Cocoa powder - ¼ cup
• Boiling water - ¼ cup

Instructions

1. 1.

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.

2. 2.

   In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

3. 3.

   In another bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.

4. 4.

   Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, alternating with milk, beginning and ending with flour. Mix until just combined.

5. 5.

   Divide the batter into two bowls. In a small bowl, mix cocoa powder and boiling water until smooth. Add this cocoa mixture to one half of the batter and stir until well combined.

6. 6.

   Spoon the vanilla and chocolate batters alternately into the prepared pan. Swirl a knife through the batter to create a marbled effect.

7. 7.

   Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. 8.

   Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
