Welcome to the 7th day of Baking Mania. Today I thought of trying zebra cake. It’s the combination of vanilla and chocolate flavor. I am not sure if I can call this cake as zebra cake (my pattern is not up to the mark), that’s why I included vanilla and chocolate cake. Well, you can call it a marble cake also. :-) The base recipe was taken from Gayathri’s blog but I changed the measurement slightly. I increased the cocoa powder a bit. Because of the increase in cocoa I had to add more milk too. I thought it’s going to be a disaster. But it turned out ok. As it had more chocolate flavor, it turned it into bite-sized pieces and served along with vanilla ice cream and it became a huge hit.
Eggless Vanilla Chocolate Cake Recipe | Zebra Cake
Ingredients:
Now add 1 cup of milk and vanilla essence.
And mix well with the mixer.
Add the flour mixture to the butter, milk mixture and mix them together till they are incorporated well.
Divide the portions into two.
Now start preheating the oven to 350 degrees F.
Chocolate Mixture:
Now sift the cocoa powder and instant coffee powder into one half of the mixture.
Add ½ cup of milk and fold in the batter.
Vanilla Mix:
Add ¼ cup of milk to the vanilla batter the other half and mix.
Grease the cake pan. Pour the batters alternately into the pan. Do not press the batter. Let it flow by itself.
Once all the batter is used up, bake the cake for 40-45 minutes.
Check with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, then remove the cake from the oven and let it sit on counter until it is easy to handle.
Let it cool and slice and serve it along with vanilla ice cream.
