Rich chocolate marble cake


This is an amazing cake which was surprisingly easy to make, especially when I used the cake mixer. Got it from (where else!) mamafami fotopages (source Sheila Mambo). My marbling effect didn't really turn out, but the good thing about that was that the choc bits were more in the middle :) I didn't have dark chocolates in the fridge, so used normal chocolates instead. I can only imagine how superb it will be with the dark version! Next baking session.
Recipe:
Preheat oven 170 degrees.
Melt 125 g dark chocolates. Cream together 125 g butter + 125 g sugar. Get 2 eggs, beat a little, add to mixture little at a time. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla essense. Add alternatingly 155 g self-raising flour with 80 mls fresh milk.
Divide cake mix into 2; mix 1 with the melted choc. Grease small pan (I used an 8 inch round cake pan for a doubled mixture). Add 2 tablespoon plain mixture to centre of pan, top with 2 tablespoons choc mixture. Continue until cake mix is finished. Bake 45 minutes or till done. Allow to cool. Eat. Scrumptious.
