Marvelous Marble Cake




I love marble cakes...kinda remind me of my childhood days..
So naturally, when I started experimenting with baking cakes from scratch (several years ago ) I began a quest for the perfect marble cake.I worked through a few recipes and of course, didn't have too much trouble finding people willing to eat my "experiments.".

But this perfectly delicious marble cake recipe is my favorite - given by a good friend, and i'd like to share it with you guys.



Here's the recipe:

Preheat oven to 150°C

Ingredient A:

2 block of SCS butter (500g )

6 whole AA size eggs

2 egg yolks

2 teaspoons vanilla essence

300g castor sugar

1 heap tablespoon ovallete

4 tablespoon F&N condensed milk


Ingredient B :

350g flour

1 heap teaspoon baking powder.

Ingredient C :(optional)

Van Houten cocoa powder

chocolate flavor essence

or

food color of your choice.


Method:

Put ingredients A in a mixer and mix well for 10 minutes

Add in ingredients B and mix for another 5 minutes or until fully incorporated.
(sieve the ingredients together before mixing )

grease and flour pan or line with baking paper.

Divide cake mix into 2 or 3 equal parts,
(kalau nak marble cake yg berwarna warni).



but i prefer just chocolate and the original cake mix (butter)
pic below.
then mix in ingredient C - cocoa powder and chocolate flavor essence (agak2 jer the amount)




pour or scoop batter into prepared pan (berselang seli)

Bake for 1 hour @ 150°C + 10 minutes. ( this part adalah 'petua' according to the original owner of the recipe )

VOILLA!!
