Marble Cake

I have been baking lots of cakes lately. Sadly, time to blog has become quite limited and so I am unable to put thing online at a regular pace. Today I decided to steal a little tie out of my schedule to share a recipe for my favorite marble cake. I usually make an eggless version of this but I thought I'd like to share a recipe that uses eggs today.

Ingredients:

1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup oil
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2/3 cup buttermilk
Cocoa paste (1/3 cup cocoa powder + 2 tbsp hot water. Stir until smooth.)

Method:

1. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together. 
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the oil and sugar, then add the eggs, vanilla extract, and buttermilk.
3. Blend well.
4. Spoon the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix to ensure no lumps.
5. Now remove one-third of the batter into a separate bowl. 
6. Add the cocoa paste into the one-third of batter.
7. Prepare a loaf pan. Then alternately spoon the vanilla and chocolate batter into the loaf.
8. Using a fork, stir through the batter a couple of times to achieve a marble effect.
9. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 F for 45-50 minuter or until it passes the toothpick test.
