Directions for the Chocolate Cake Swirl 1. In a medium sized bowl stir together cocoa powder, hot coffee, and 2 tbsp. of sugar, until cocoa powder is dissolved. 2. Take 2 cups of the yellow buttermilk cake batter, and mix into the cocoa powder mixture, until well combined. 3. Place about 1/4 of the yellow vanilla cake batter into the bottom of the cake pan. Then alternate between the chocolate swirl batter, and the yellow cake batter, until all batter has been used. 4. Using a knife make an S shape running from the inside to the outside of the pan to combine the yellow and chocolate colors. 5. Finally, tap the cake to dislodge any bubbles and do it carefully. 6. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the deepest part of the cake comes out clean. 7. Allow cake to cool for 15 minutes before inverting over a cooling rack, and removing pan. 8. Cool completely. Then drizzle the glaze all over the cake. ENJOY! Directions for the Chocolate Doughnut Glaze Combine butter, milk, and vanilla in medium saucepan. Heat over medium until butter is melted. Decrease the heat to low, add the chocolate, and whisk until melted. Turn off heat, add the powdered sugar, and whisk until smooth.
