Zebra Cake
This cake is made by layering two different cake batters in a cake pan so when it bakes you get a zebra strip pattern throughout the cake.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease the bottom of a 10-inch round pan with oil.
- Stir the flour, salt and baking powder in a bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix the eggs and sugar until smooth and light colored, about two minutes on high speed of a hand mixer. Add the oil and milk, and mix for another minute.
- Add the flour mixture and mix just until blended. The batter will be of pouring consistency but not thin. Stir in the vanilla.
- Pour half of the batter into another bowl. Add the cocoa powder to one portion and mix until blended.
- Assemble the cake: Take two 1/4 measuring cups. Pour a cupful of the white cake batter onto the center of the pan. Then, pour a cupful of the chocolate batter directly on top at the center of the cupful of white cake batter. Repeat until all the cake batter has been poured into the pan.
- Bake the cake until a knife inserted at the center comes out clean. Approximately 50 minutes.
