Once in a while, you need someone or something to remind you what you are truly capable of doing and once in a while, you need someone to tell you that you have the will to do it all. One such book which has fired my neurons is ‘Lean In’ (Women, Work and the Will to Lead), a book by Sheryl Sandberg, Chief Operating Officer of Facebook & Nell Scovell, TV and magazine writer. It’s truly inspiring.

This is my 1st post for this year and so I wanted to send something very special your way. So my readers, my well-wishers, my friends, first-timers on this blog, this is for you, and may you benefit from this brave and courageous book. I know it’s late, but still

Wishing you a Very Happy and Prosperous New Year.

The Alchemist is another book I read about 10 years ago and I have never forgotten these wonderful quotes. I like to think of these quotes whenever I am trying to do something and things are not working the way I want it to.

“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”

“It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.”

——The Alchemist

Now if you want to pick up a beautiful book and a Coffee

What is marble cake?

A marble cake is a cake with a streaked appearance. The marble-like look can be achieved by combining two flavors of different colors. The more common among them is the chocolate marble cake in which you create a streak of vanilla and chocolate flavor.

How to make marble cake?

To make a marble cake start with a super moist vanilla butter cake batter. Transfer 1/4 of the batter into a separate bowl and then add cocoa powder and milk to create a chocolate batter.

After then pour the vanilla batter into a cake pan. Pour the chocolate batter in circles and with a toothpick or a skewer go in circles to create chocolate swirls.

This marble cake recipe is awesome and so moist. I finished one cake in 4 days all by myself. I can never resist a buttery coffee cake.

If you like vanilla cake or buttery cake then my friends, this is for you. If you enjoy an afternoon coffee or tea then again this is for you and for those who like to munch in between, this is for you.

Some frequently asked questions about marble cake:

Can you freeze marble cake?

Yes, you can freeze a marble cake. It freezes well. You can wrap it tightly with a plastic wrap and place it in a freezer-safe bag. Leave it on the counter for an hour or two before serving so that it reaches room temperature. If you are in a hurry you can also microwave it. Once you microwave, try to have it immediately, or else it will tend to harden.

Can I make marble cake from a box mix?

You can use a white, yellow, or vanilla box mix. Make the batter as per the instructions. Transfer 1/4 cup of batter into a bowl and add cocoa powder and milk and make streaks.

    And don’t u think the time 60to 70min.is more…Whereas it’s around 30min.always.
    Any specific reason y the temp.amd time are different for this cake.

      Hey Soniya, There are two reasons why this cake takes more time.
      1. The amount of flour is 2 cups, which leads to a taller cake. So it takes longer for the inside to cook.
      2. Mostly cake is baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit/175 degrees Celsius. This cake is baked at a lower temperature. I have observed that this way the sides of the cake don’t darken as much and the texture is better.

      Hope this helps.

      I have heard that yogurt is a good substitute for egg. (1 egg = 1/4 cup yogurt (not hung curd/greek yogurt)). I am yet to try it though.

      • Teena Agnel says

        January 29, 2017 at 4:27 am

        My pleasure Soniya:) Yes you can use the everyday curd..Avoid the watery part and stir well before using
