#matcha cake

Made my husband a matcha roll cake for valentines day and gave it to him a little early. Yay baking!

Is edible fanart for horror podcasts a thing? I’m making it a thing.

Cake inspired by The Magnus Archives episode 81: A Guest for Mr. Spider.

Chocolate Matcha Bundt Cake

Chocolate Mixture:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup cocoa
• 1 ½ tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt

Matcha Mixture:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2-3 tbsp matcha powder
• 1 ½ tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients:

• 3 cups sugar
• 1 cup butter
• 3 eggs, room temperature
• 1 ¾ cup milk, room temperature
• 1 tsp vanilla

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325˚

Grease and flour (or cocoa) a 10-12 cup bundt pan

With a whisk, mix the dry ingredients for the chocolate mixture in a small bowl and set aside

In another bowl, do the same for the matcha mixture

Cream together the butter and the sugar. Add the milk, eggs, and vanilla and mix until thoroughly combined

Divide the creamed mixture evenly in two separate bowls

Slowly add the chocolate mixture to one half of the creamed mixture and mix thoroughly. Then, do the same with the matcha mixture and the other half of the creamed mixture.

Drop alternating spoonfuls of each mixture into the bundt pan until it’s about ¾ full

For a marbled effect, gently run a knife or poker through the batters in a swirling motion

Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes
