BUTTERSCOTCH MARBLE CAKE

According to Better Homes & Gardens, Bundt cakes were so popular in the 1980s that they even came up with one. Butterscotch Marble Cake was one of their first ones and, they consider it one of their best. 

Bundt cakes are always so moist and the unique shape is great for appearances, especially if you are entertaining.

I thought I would make it to take to Hillcrest Thrift Shop this week and once again it was very well received. Even though I used a regular white cake mix (I haven't found a sugar-free white cake mix yet), I did use a sugar-free package of the instant butterscotch pudding mix. Any reduction I can make with sugar has to be a good thing since I didn't use a sugar-free chocolate-flavored syrup.

It is so pretty when you cut a slice and then everyone is completely surprised when they see the chocolate!
