Chocolate Chips Sour Cream Marble Cake

When I saw this cake at HBS, Wen's Delight, Bakericious and Hearty-Bakes, it looks like a big donut to me but on further reading then I realised its a delicious marble cake, fluffy and moist.  This is definitely a keeper recipe.


This tender-crumbled, lusciously flavored butter cake is such a delight! It actually slices like velvet, so yummy!

3 tbsp Varlhona Cocoa powder
