What's in My Fridge?

Marbled Chocolate Cake

3 stars based on 11 reviews Rate this Recipe

Method

Oil or grease well the baking ring (I like to make this in a ring rather than in a normal shaped cake tin)

Cream butter and sugar.

Slowly add the two beaten eggs. If the mixture curdles, add a tablespoon of flour

Add the flour and fold in gently.

Divide the mixture in two.

Add cocoa into one mixture and fold in well.

Add both mixtures into the ring. I suggest adding spoonfuls in the container are various intervals.

Take a skewer and swirl the mixture . Don't swirl too much otherwise the mixture will come out light brown - rather than having a lovely marbled effect. However do take care to touch the bottom of the baking container. The first time I made this, there was no marbled effect on the bottom.

Bake at Number 6/200 degree for around 25 mins or until the sponge is firm and golden. My oven tends to cook quickly so I always check after 20 mins.

Take out of the oven and let the cake cool in the container for 5 mins and then turn out.

You might want to melt some dark chocolate and pour over the ringed cake for more grown up look.

Looks interesting. I'm doing cooking in D.T at the moment, and we have to choose a pudding/cake/cookies to make I may choose this one as it looks very nice and I'm sure my family will like it. I have two hours. How long does it take to make it?
