Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Whole milk
• 2 tablespoon Cocoa powder
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 10 drop Food coloring (brown)
• 8 ounce Fondant
• 1 Edible marker (black)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a round cake pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just blended.
5. Divide the batter in half. In one half, mix in the cocoa powder until well combined.
6. Pour the plain batter into the prepared cake pan. Spoon the cocoa batter on top and swirl gently with a knife to create a marbled effect.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. In the meantime, roll out the fondant to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Cut out a large oval shape to resemble a baseball mitt.
10. Once the cake is completely cooled, place the fondant baseball mitt on top of the cake.
11. Use the edible marker to draw stitching details on the fondant to complete the baseball mitt design.
12. Serve and enjoy!
