Ingredients

1.5 cups all purpose flour, 195 grams
3 tablespoons cornstarch, 33 grams
1.25 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
pinch salt
1.25 cups milk, 10 oz
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon white vinegar, 15 ml + 5 ml
1/3 cup oil, 80 ml
3/4 cup superfine caster sugar, 150 grams, or you may use granulated white sugar
1.5 teaspoon vanilla extract, 7.5 ml
2 tablespoons cocoa powder, 14 grams

Method

* Pre-heat oven to 350 F degrees. Spray a 8 x 4 inch load pan with non-stick spray and set aside.

* In a large bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

* In a bowl or measuring jar, mix in 1.25 cups (10 oz) milk with 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon (20 ml) white vinegar. Stir and set aside for 5 to 10 minutes until it curdles a little.

* Using the paddle attachment of your stand mixer or using your hand mixer, beat together oil and sugar until creamy and combined. Then add in the vanilla and mix.

* Start adding the flour mix. Add 1/2 of it and mix. Then add the prepared milk+vinegar mixture (all of it). Stir in the remaining 1/2 of the flour mix. Remember to not overmix. The batter is now ready.

* Divide the batter into 2 equal parts. I had 2 parts of 355 gram each. To one part, add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and mix.

* Pour half of the vanilla batter in to the bottom of the prepared loaf pan. Spread with a spatula. Then pour whole of the chocolate batter on top. Spread with a spatula. Top with the remaining half of the vanilla batter.

* Now, take a knife and insert it into the batter. Make a swirl going up and down once across the batter (see pictures in the recipe above).

* Bake at 350 F degrees for 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack and then cut into slices. Enjoy marble cake with coffee!
