Marble Cake A Cheaters Version!

                                                                         


This is a delicious Marble Cake! So moist, full of flavor & passes as a you made it from scratch cake!

1 Betty Crocker Super Moist Yellow Cake Mix
1, 3.4 oz. Jello Instant Pudding Mix
1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil
3 Eggs
1 Cup Yogurt Plain
2 TBS Cocoa Powder I use Hershey's Extra Dark
Preheat oven to 350 degrees & grease & flour 2, 9 inch cake rounds. Mix cake according to package but instead of water use the yogurt, spoon batter into pans evenly, reserving 1&1/2 cups of batter in the bowl. In the reserved batter whisk in the cocoa powder. Mix well, then dollop tablespoon full on top of your batter in the cake pans. Use a butter knife to swirl the batter for the marbling effect. Do not touch the bottom of the pans as you do this! Bake for 25 minutes or until cake test done! Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes & then dump out on a clean flat surface. Let cool completely before you frost. 
FROSTING:
8 Tablespoons Butter Softened
6 Cups Powdered Sugar
Dash of Salt
2 TSP Vanilla
Milk enough for the consistency you desire, I used about  1/2 Cup a little at time stop when you get the right spread-ability!
Frost the cake. Then I melted 1 & 1/2 Cups of Chocolate Chips with 1 Tsp Shortening over a double boiler, once melted & spooned & drizzled the chocolate over the top of the cake & down the sides. Shake sprinkles over everything if desired. A GREAT CAKE!
