Neapolitan Cake Recipe
- 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 8 drops red food coloring
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
- 1 tablespoon baking cocoa
- confectioners' sugar
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil and eggs. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Divide batter into three equal portions. Pour one portion into a greased 10-in. fluted tube pan. Stir red food coloring into another portion; carefully spoon into pan. Stir chocolate syrup and cocoa into remaining batter; carefully spoon into pan. Do no swirl.
