1. 6 egg whites
2. 6 egg yolks
3. 225g sugar
4. 225g butter
5. 225g plain flour (sifted)
6. 25 g cocoa (sifted)
7. 2 tbsp evaporated milk
8. 2 1/2 tbsp evaporated milk
9. vanilla
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 175°C.
2. Beat the egg whites until firm. Add in about 1/3 (75 g) of the sugar and continue to beat until sugar is dissoved and the mixture looks thick. Keep this aside.
3. Put the butter into a mixing bowl and pour in the remaining sugar. Beat the butter and sugar until creamy (sugar not necessarily to be dissolved). Make sure the bowl is not too big else the mixture is beaten, it will be ‘flying’ in the bowl.
4. Add in the egg yolks 1 at a time. Beat well and add in vanilla.
5. Use a spoon to fold in the beaten egg whites and flour. Mix well.
6. Divide the mixture into two bowls. Add 2 tbsp evaporated milk to 1 bowl and mix well. Add 2 1/2 tbsp evaporated milk and 25g cocoa into the other bowl and mix well.
7. Grease a baking tin - 23cm x 6 cm. Line the base and sides with greaseproof paper.
8. Scoop the mixtures from both bowls alternately into the baking tin – to form alternate layers of plain and chocolate.

*sorry, forgot to take a pic of the cake before it was cut.
Okay, anyone, care for a piece of marble cake?
P/s: Make sure the top layer is the plain layer if not when it’s baked the top layer will look like it’s ‘burnt’.
