Marble Cake

Chocolate is swirled into the vanilla batter to make this marble cake. Frost with chocolate frosting.

• 1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
• 1 3/4 cup sifted cake flour
• 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 egg
• 1 cup sugar

Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in oil, milk and vanilla and beat until batter is very smooth. In another bowl, beat the eggs until thick and foamy. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until well blended. Fold egg and sugar mixture thoroughly into batter. Drizzle chocolate over the batter then cut through batter several times to give a marbled appearance. Pour into a greased and floured 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Bake at 325° for 35 to 45 minutes. Cool then frost.
