Orange Marble Cake Recipe

The chocolate orange marble cake is a beautiful cake that is easy to prepare and also wonderful to look at.

Orange marble cake recipe. I substituted the plain yogurt with vanilla lowfat yogurt and for the liqueur i used about a teaspoon of orange extract and doubled the orange juice. I made this for a co worker s baby shower cake and brought sample cake made from this recipe and from a very traditional marble cake recipe to the office for them to pick their favorite. Heat oven to 180c fan 160c gas 4. This recipe was the unanimous favorite.

Beat the butter sugar eggs and flour together in a large bowl with an electric whisk or in a food processor until lump free. Combine melted chocolate baking soda and water and blend into remaining cake batter. Next time i would 1 1 2 x the recipe for a higher fuller cake and cook longer. Combine the killer combination of chocolate and orange with a moist crumbly sponge cake and you have a winner not to mention its marble appearance which makes it even more appealing.

It was for my brownie troops cookbook. I hope you will enjoy this modern version. I remember being very proud because i had taken 3rd place with my mom s recipe. Grease and line the base of a loaf tin 8 x 21cm 2lb with baking parchment.

Put the sugar butter flour baking powder and eggs in a bowl. Excellent and easy cake. Transfer half the mixture into a second bowl. First cake i ever learned to make was a marble cake.

Very flavorful cake very moist. This marble cake with melted chocolate swirls and the taste of real oranges comes together with very little effort and tastes delicious too nbsp blending orange with chocolates makes the cake have 2 very different kinds of sweetness which go together perfectly. Beat with an electric whisk for 3 to 4 mins until pale and creamy. We like our chocolate cake to be on the sweet side i have changed the measurement you may use less sugar if you prefer.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched.
