Chocolate Vanilla Marble Cake
Super cake!
I make it into breads, round cakes and cups, proving excellent every time. Nice
and fluffy. I prefer to hold on to two tablespoons of sugar.
INGREDIENTS
- 165g eggs (3 eggs)*
- 2/3 cup (150g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup (200g) sugar
- 2 cups (235g) flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ cups (60g) milk
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp (8.5ml) vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 3 tsbp (22g) unsweetened cocoa powder + 1 tbsp (15ml) milk
INSTRUCTIONS
First, Preheat
oven to 200 ° C (390 ° F). Grease a 9 × 5-inch baking tin with butter and
sprinkle with flour.
Then, Using
a spatula or whisk, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs
and mix until well incorporated.
In another
bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix with
the moist ingredients and mix until everything is incorporated. Add the 60 g of
milk and mix until incorporated.
Divide the
dough into two separate bowls. In the first bowl, incorporate the vanilla
extract. In the second bowl, incorporate the cocoa powder with a tablespoon of
milk.
Using a
large spoon, place about 1/3 cup of the vanilla dough in the prepared pan and
spread evenly over the bottom. Using another large spoon, spread the mass of
chocolate dough in the center and spread it (by pressing it slightly in the
center and leaving part of the vanilla mixture visible on the edges). Repeat
with a layer of vanilla cake mix, then a layer of chocolate cake mix (still
gently pushing the dough in the middle and leaving some of the dough visible on
the edges - to create this pattern marbled corrugated once sliced). Repeat
alternating layers until all the dough is used. To create mottles, pass a sharp
knife through the dough in a swirling motion.
Bake for 10
minutes. Reduce heat to 350 ° F (180 ° C) and bake for 40 minutes until a cake
tester comes out clean.
Transfer to
a cooling rack and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
This cake is
delicious hot or cold. You can keep it for up to 3 days on your kitchen
counter, well wrapped in aluminum foil. Happy Cooking Time.
