I just love this simple, old-fashioned cake as it always reminds me of when I was little. Made using a basic Madeira cake recipe, the mixture is separated into two bowls, cocoa powder is folded into one and then the two mixtures are swirled gently together. This cake will keep for a couple of days in an airtight box, or it can be frozen. Serve it plain or dusted with icing sugar, or drizzle some hot chocolate sauce over the top.
Brilliant and easy cake.

Its so easy to make and it was delicious!! Should I add a little milk to the cocoa mixture?
No, You don't need to add more milk. http://kitchenfun.withti.com/
Instead of making the chocolate part, you can divide the mixture between 3 bowls and add food colouring (contrasting colours work best) and then continue to marbelise etc. This is a fun variation, especially for childrens' cakes. Also for a bit of a "suprise" if you make a colourful marbel cake and then ice it with a drab grey or boring colour, it gives a great "burst of colour" when you cut into it!
It is delicous for a family....
