heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

granulated sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey adds natural sweetness with a unique flavor.

unsweetened cocoa powder

🥗Healthier: carob powder

💰Cheaper: chocolate syrup

Carob powder is caffeine-free and offers a different taste.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease and flour a bundt pan.

Mix flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

In a separate bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in vanilla extract and mix until combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with milk, until smooth.

Divide the batter in half; add cocoa powder to one half and mix well.

Spoon alternating dollops of the two batters into the prepared bundt pan.

Use a knife to swirl the batters together for a marbled effect.

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

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with heavy cream.
