Banana Split Marble Cake Recipe

When you have to make something over the top and want that wow moment this is that cake to make. You can use a mix if you want and just layer this the way I did with fruits and toppings to make it a simple version. Either way everyone will go crazy for this one that love banana splits.

 Marble Cake Batter:

3/4 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 tsp. vanilla extract

1 tsp. of almond extract
1 1/4 cups milk, half and half sour milk or buttermilk
1 cup of mini chocolate chip
1/4 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder

Grease a 13 x 9 pan. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix the butter sugar together until light. Add flour, eggs,baking powder,baking soda, vanilla and milk. Beat till smooth, around three minutes, split batter into two bowls.
Add the unsweetened cocoa powder to one bowl mix well.
Grease the pan of your choice, o you can use a bundt pan, or two 8 inch pans using same method. Start with a small amount of vanilla cake batter on the bottom, add a dollop of chocolate batter in the center, sprinkle just the chocolate with mini chocolate chips. Continue layering until all the batter is gone. Do not stir. Bake at 350 for around 40 minutes till done, test with a toothpick if it comes out clean in the center.

Cool completely. Top with sliced bananas then top with the whipped cream (so the bananas won't turn brown they are covered with the cream). Swirl caramel ice cream topping, strawberry ice cream topping and hot fudge over the top. Decorate with sliced cherries, strawberries. Store in refrigerator.
