Vanilla Batter

 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (225g)
 1 ½ granulated sugar (300g)
 4 large eggs, room temperature
 2 tsp vanilla extract
 2 ½ all-purpose flour (315g)

 2 tbsp granulated sugar
 2 tbsp milk
1

Prepare the pan. Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter and flour a 10-cup bundt pan.

2

Cream. Beat the butter and sugar for 4 minutes until fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla.

3

Make the vanilla batter. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the butter mixture in three parts, alternating with the milk.

4

Make the chocolate batter. Mix the cocoa, sugar, and milk into a paste, then stir it into one third of the batter.

5

Swirl. Spoon the two batters into the pan in alternating dollops, then run a knife through them two or three times.

6

Bake. Bake for 50–55 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a rack.
