Dry

  • 2½ cups (315 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt

  • 1¾ cups (350 g) sugar
  • 4 large eggs, room temp
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk, room temp

Chocolate swirl

  • ¼ cup (25 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp milk (or hot water)
  • 1 tbsp sugar (optional, deepens chocolate flavor)

Instructions

  1. Prep
    • Preheat oven to 175°C / 350°F
    • Grease and line a 9-inch round pan or loaf pan.
  2. Mix dry ingredients
    • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. Cream butter & sugar
    • Beat until pale and fluffy (about 3–4 minutes).
  4. Add eggs & vanilla
    • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.
    • Mix in vanilla.
  5. Combine
    • Add dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with milk.
    • Mix just until smooth—don’t overdo it.
  6. Make chocolate batter
    • Take about ⅓ of the batter and mix it with cocoa powder, milk, and sugar.
  7. Marble it
    • Spoon vanilla and chocolate batters alternately into the pan.
    • Swirl gently with a knife or skewer (2–3 passes only!).
  8. Bake
    • Bake 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool
    • Let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out and cool completely.
