When I saw the theme for this Bake Along, I did a happy dance...I just love marbled butter cakes, creating different effects for every cake! I decided to bake this cake using the now famous among bloggers Mrs Ng's butter cake and it turned out really nice and soft with a really flat top too! I mixed one cup of batter with 3 teaspoons of cocoa powder for the chocolate part. After dolloping the chocolate batter on the centre, I covered the top with original batter and drop small dots of chocolate batter on the top to create the marble effect with a chopstick.
