Gather the Ingredients and Supplies

Ingredients:
1 box cake mix
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Supplies:
2 (8-inch) round cake pans
1 (16-ounce) container vanilla frosting
Red food coloring
Green food coloring
1 (1-pound) bag miniature marshmallows

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8 inch round cake pans.

2. Sift together the cake mix, flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the water, oil, vinegar, and vanilla. Mix well with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, then on high speed for 2 minutes.

3. Pour half of the batter into each pan. Drop each pan onto the counter a few times so that the batter splatters.

4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes. Cool cake layers in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely.

5. To make the marble effect, tint 1/2 cup of the frosting red and 1/2 cup green. Reserve the remaining untinted frosting.

6. To assemble, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread with red frosting. Place the second cake layer on top. Spread the top and sides of the cake with the untinted frosting.

7. Using a knife, swirl the green frosting through the red frosting on the top of the cake.

8. For the marshmallow topping, melt the marshmallows in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Spread over the top of the cake. Let the cake cool completely before serving.

Create the Marble Effect

As you may know, a classic marble cake is made by swirling together two different batters – usually a chocolate and vanilla flavor. This can be time consuming and sometimes the marble effect can be quite subtle. Here’s a hack on how to get that classic marble look using a box cake mix!

First, make the cake mix according to the package instructions. Once the batter is prepared, divide it in half. For one half, add in some cocoa powder – start with 1/4 cup and add more to taste.

Now, take a spoon and alternate adding the two batters into the pan, starting with the vanilla batter. Be sure to do this in a circular motion so that the batters swirl together.

Bake the cake according to the package instructions and enjoy!

Bake the Marble Cake

Do you love the taste of marble cake, but don’t want to go to the trouble of making one from scratch? With this easy hack, you can turn a box of cake mix into a delicious marble cake that will impress your friends and family!

Here’s what you’ll need:

1 box of cake mix
1 cup of water
½ cup of oil
3 eggs
1 cup of chocolate chips

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, water, oil and eggs. Stir until the ingredients are well combined.

Pour half of the batter into a separate bowl. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave or in a double boiler. Once melted, stir the chocolate into the batter in the second bowl.

Pour the chocolate batter and the plain batter into a greased and floured cake pan. Swirl the batters together with a knife to create a marbled effect.

Bake the cake for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before serving. Enjoy!

Cool and Serve the Marble Cake

Marble cake is a classic cake that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are looking for a simple cake to serve at a birthday party or a more sophisticated cake to serve at a wedding, marble cake is a great option.

Making marble cake is actually very simple, and can be done with any type of cake mix. The key to getting the perfect marbled effect is to pour the batter into the pan in a zig-zag pattern.

Start by preheating your oven to the temperature specified on the cake mix box. Then, prepare the cake mix according to the instructions.

Once the cake mix is prepared, pour half of it into the pan. Then, take the other half of the cake mix and add in your desired food coloring. You can use any color you like, but we recommend using two different colors for a more dramatic effect.

Once the cake mix is colored, pour it into the pan in a zig-zag pattern. Be sure to pour it slowly so that the colors have a chance to swirl together.

Bake the cake according to the instructions on the cake mix box. Once the cake is done, allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
