Classic Marble Cake
Description of the Meal:
A delightful twist on a classic favorite, the Marble Cake combines the rich depth of chocolate with the light, sweet taste of vanilla in a beautifully swirled cake. This treat is perfect for afternoon tea, special occasions, or simply satisfying your sweet tooth.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup unsalted soft butter (150 g)(1 1/4 sticks)
1 1/2 cups sugar (300 g)
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 large eggs
3/4 cup milk (180 ml)
2 cups all-purpose flour (300 g)
2 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
4 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (to add to half of the batter)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Alternately mix in the flour mixed with baking powder and salt with the milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
Divide the batter into two equal parts. To one part, add the unsweetened cocoa powder and mix well.
Grease a baking pan and pour in the vanilla batter and chocolate batter alternately. Use a knife to gently swirl the batters together to create the marble effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-55 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
