Marble Cake

Ingredients

  • 225 g Butter
  • 225 g Caster sugar
  • 225 g Gluten free self-raising flour
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla essence
  • 3 tsp Cocoa powder
  • 50 g White chocolate
  • 50 g Milk chocolate

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees/gas mark 4. Cream the butter and sugar together in a mixing bowl. Add the eggs and the flour gradually, folding as you go. 
  • Split the mixture into two separate bowls, with approximately half the mixture in each.
  • In one bowl, add the vanilla, and in the other, add the cocoa powder. Mix both well.
  • Spoon each mixture alternately into a 20cm lined tin, until each is used up.
  • Using a cake tester, swirl the mixtures together slightly. Make sure the mixture is levelled out (give it a gentle wiggle), then bake for 50-55 minutes.
  • While the cake cools, melt the milk chocolate and white chocolate (I placed them in the microwave for 30 seconds or so, checking and stirring regularly). Using a teaspoon, drizzle the chocolate onto the cake, one at a time, to create a marbled effect. Leave to set and enjoy.
