Since I’m in Afghanistan, a few friends and fellow bloggers agreed to help me out, so you, dear reader, would still have some recipes and other fun stuff to check out while I’m gone! Today, I am linking to a recipe from the delightful, adorable and oh-so-sweet Jessie (aka Cake Spy).

Jessie writes that this marble cake is so rich that just a slice is enough to satisfy:

It’s almost like the cake part of a crumb cake, swirled with chocolate. So buttery, so creamy.

And when paired with the tangy sour cream frosting? It’s like having your birthday again, no matter what day of the year.
