Marble Cake Recipe: How To Make Marble Cake
Ingredients:
- All Purpose Flour - 2 & 1/2 cup
- Baking Powder - 2 tsp
- Baking Soda - 1/2 tsp
- Salt - 1/2 tsp
- Castor Sugar - 1 & 1/3 cup
- Cocoa Powder (unsweetened) - 4 tbsp
- Vegetable Oil - 1/2 cup
- Yogurt (thick)- 1 cup
- Milk - 1/2 cup
- Hot Water - 2 tbsp
- Vanilla Extract - 1 tsp
Method:
- First, whisk together yogurt, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, milk and sugar. Sift in the dry ingredients and fold that in. Now, in a separate bowl, dilute cocoa powder with hot water and mix half of the batter with it.
- Next, take a baking tin lined with parchment paper or a silicone tin and add the batter one at a time - alternating between the chocolate and vanilla. Swirl it around.
- Bake it at 180 degree C for 30-35 minutes or until done.
Chef Guntas also added the following tips in the caption:
- Just like any cake, don't overmix the batter. Incorporate as much air as you can. To keep the cake light and not make it dense.
- It's much easier to make sure your pans have the same amounts of cake batter if you add the spoonfuls of batter in rounds. Add a spoonful of vanilla to each pan, then a spoonful of chocolate to each pan, and repeat until you've used all your batter.
