Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a bundt pan, or use nonstick baking spray with flour.
Mix cake mix, pudding, sour cream, eggs, water, oil, food coloring and almond extract on low speed just until combined. Then turn mixer on medium speed and mix for 3 minutes.
Put 1/3 of cake batter (about one cup) in a separate bowl. Add chocolate syrup to this batter and stir to combine.
Assemble the cake by adding half of the pistachio (green) cake batter to the bottom of the prepared pan. Smooth with the back of a spoon.
Spoon the chocolate layer over the pistachio cake batter. Don't stir or swirl.
Add the rest of the pistachio cake batter to the pan. Smooth the cake batter with the back of a spoon. Don't stir. It will magically create a marbled effect on it's own!
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs, or when the internal temperature of the cake is 210℉.
Let cool for ten minutes in the pan. Invert a wire cooling rack or plate over the bundt pan. Using hot pads hold the plate and the bundt pan together and flip the bundt pan over. The cake should easily release from the pan. Completely cool.
Dust with powder sugar if desired. Slice. Serve.
