Marble Cake from the old EDC
« on: March 22, 2014, 01:48:40 am »
This recipe was in the original EDC but not in the latest 2013 version of the book.  So here it is for those who don't have the old EDC.

300g butter, softened
270g sugar/split
1 tsp vanilla sugar/essence
Few drops rum essence or rum
pinch salt
5 eggs
370g self raising flour
70g milk/split
1 tbspn cocoa powder

Pre-heat oven to 180oC.

Place butter into TM bowl and mix for 1 min/speed 5.

Add 250g of the sugar, vanilla, rum, salt and mix to combine for 45 sec/speed 5.

Add eggs one by one through the opening in the lid and mix for approx 15 sec/speed 5.

Add flour, 40g milk and blend for 20 sec/speed 5.

Place 2/3 of the mixture into a well-greased large flute tin.

Add the cocoa powder, remaining 20g sugar and remaining 30g milk to the rest of the mixture and mix for 5-10 sec/speed 5.

Place the dark mixture over the light one and slightly swirl with a fork to create a marble pattern or as Sue purrb suggests to ensure it marbles all the way through to the bottom, place alternate spoonsful of the light and dark mix around the cake pan, layering it until all the mix is used up, then swirl with a skewer.

Bake in a moderate pre-heated oven for approx. 30-40 mins or until golden brown and a skewer comes out clean.

Dust with icing sugar to serve.

Indeed. You think of everything.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
