Ingredients

For the dough:

200 g butter
240 g sugar
1 Packet of vanilla sugar
1 pinch of lemon peel
4 drops of vanilla flavor
6 Eggs
1 pinch of salt
280 g KOMEKO KUCHENGLÜCK
0.5 Pack of baking powder
100 ml milk
20 g cocoa

preparation

Preheat oven
Preheat oven to 180 °C top/bottom heat (fan oven: 160 °C).
Prepare the butter mixture
Beat butter with 140g sugar, vanilla sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, stirring for 1 minute each.
Whip egg whites
Beat egg whites with salt until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar.
Finish the dough
Mix KOMEKO KUCHENGLÜCK with baking powder. Carefully fold the flour mixture, milk, and beaten egg whites into the butter mixture.
Marble dough
Divide the dough in half. Mix one half with cocoa. Pour the light batter into a greased bundt pan, then spread the dark batter on top. Using a fork, swirl the batter through the dough to create the marbled pattern.
Baking & Serving
Bake in the preheated oven for 50–60 minutes. Then let cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
