Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 orange, zested and juiced
1 cup pureed yams or 1 (15-ounce can) yams, drained and pureed
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 cups flour plus 2 tablespoons
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Salt
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
Pinch of cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons hot water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 1 1/2-quart glass loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, using a mixer, cream the butter with sugar at high speed until fluffy and pale yellow, about 5 minutes. Add in the eggs, vanilla, and orange zest. Mix in the yams, sour cream and orange juice.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Slowly mix in the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Spoon out 1/3 of the cake batter and place in a small bowl.
  • In a small measuring cup, make a thin paste of the cocoa, cayenne, and hot water, stirring until smooth. Pour into the small bowl of cake batter and stir just until well mixed. Pour half the (non-chocolate) yam batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spoon on the chocolate batter, and then finish by pouring the remaining yam batter on top. Use a butter knife to cut through the cake to create a marbling effect. Bake until the cake is firm and toothpick comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool before slicing.

Yield 6 Mini Bundt Cakes

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 ounces butter
1 cup sugar
2 egg yolks
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons half and half
2 egg whites
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup coffee
1 pinch baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add yolks, incorporating well.
  • Sift together flour and baking powder. On low speed add flour to butter mixture alternating with sour cream and half and half. In a clean bowl, whip whites until stiff. Gradually add sugar and whip until glossy. Fold into batter. In separate bowl stir together cocoa, coffee and baking soda. Take off 1/3 of the batter and stir in cocoa mixture. Drop spoonfuls of each colored batter into 6 nonstick mini bundt cake pans. Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes or until firm to the touch. Let cool in pan then turn out. Serve with warm chocolate sauce and banana-walnut ice cream

Tips:

  • Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients. This will ensure that you get accurate measurements, which is essential for a successful cake.
  • Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them to mix together more easily and create a smoother batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough and dense.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake to rise evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before you frost it. This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

Chocolate Yam Marble Cake is a delicious and festive cake that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of chocolate and yam flavors is unique and irresistible, and the marbled effect adds a touch of elegance. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
