40g cream

100g dark chocolate

Preparation:

    Grease a 20cm diameter cake tin and cover with baking paper.

    Melt 130g chocolate with bainmarie method.
    Beat butter and sugar for 1-2 minutes at Speed 3 until creamy. Scrape down the sides with spatula.

    Pour 1 spoon of vanilla batter in the cake tin, then pour 1 spoon of chocolate batter. Continue until you finish them all.
    Give a marbled look by using a skewer.

    Bake in preheated oven at 180ºC for 35-40 minutes. (use a toothpick to check if cooked)
    Get out of the oven. Let it rest in the tin for 15 minutes. Remove it and let it cool.

    In a clean TM Bowl place white chocolate and chop for 8 seconds on Speed 8.
    Scrape down the sides of TM Bowl. Add cream and melt for 4-5 minutes at 50ºC on Speed 2-3. Set aside.

I make marble cake farfallina but yours is different. I'll try it when we return from Singapore.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
