Directions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or a loaf pan.
- 2
Place the eggs, sugar, margarine, and milk in the blender. Blend on medium speed for 2 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth.
- 3
With the blender on low, gradually add the flour in batches until the batter is lump-free and silky.
- 4
Pour the batter into a large mixing bowl and gently fold in the baking powder using a spatula.
- 5
Transfer about ½ cup of batter into a small bowl. Stir in the cocoa powder until you have a smooth, even chocolate batter.
- 6
Pour the plain vanilla batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.
- 7
Using a spoon or piping bag, drizzle the chocolate batter over the surface in thin, irregular streams.
- 8
Drag a toothpick or skewer through both batters in figure-eight motions to create the marble pattern.
- 9
Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- 10
Let the cake cool completely before topping with a chocolate glaze or ganache of your choice.
💡 Chef's Tip
For a richer flavor, swap the margarine for melted unsalted butter and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the plain batter. You can also use dark cocoa powder for a more intense chocolate swirl.
