The key word for this delicious cake is BISQUICK. This is one of the best & easiest homemade, SCRATCH CAKES YOU WILL EVER MAKE. I created this version from the basic recipe that I have already posted. It is basically made in one bowl unless of course you choose to make it marble as I did. In this recipe I chose to use Butter Flavored Crisco instead of butter.Then I melted some Ghirardelli Chocolate Chips & added it to part of the batter, & the results were amazing. A delicious moist & tasty pound cake. Serve it plain or top it with fresh fruit & whipped cream, it Is a win win situation.

How To Make butter flavored amaretto marble pound cake

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a large Bundt Pan, the one I used holds 16 cups, with Baker's Joy or grease and flour, then set aside till needed.
  • Step 2
    Dump all of the ingredients into a large bowl EXCEPT THE CHOCOLATE CHIPS.
  • Step 3
    Beat for one minute until ingredients come together, then increase speed and beat for about 5 minutes, until batter is smooth.
  • Step 4
    Melt chocolate chips in a small bowl in microwave for about 1 minute, then stir until no lumps remain. My microwave is 1000 watts.
  • Step 5
    Remove about 3 cups of cake batter to a small bowl, then add in the melted chocolate, and stir until blended together.
  • Step 6
    Now using a separate spoon for each bowl of batter, alternate the yellow & chocolate cake batter into the prepared cake pan. Repeat until all of the cake batter has been used. Then carefully smooth out the top of cake.
  • Step 7
    Bake in preheated 350 degree F. oven for 1 hour to 1 hour 5-10 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean. CHECK AFTER 1 HOUR. Be sure to leave enough room in pan for cake to rise.

    This is the bottom side of cake.
