Top deck chocolate Marble Cake

Do you remember the bliss that was (and still is) *Top Deck* chocolate made by Cadbury’s? Imagine it – Cadbury Dairy Milk, milk chocolate with a layer of creamy white chocolate on the top deck… sigh, now I will spend the entire day thinking of milk and white chocolate.

Right – now that I have that off my chest – I can share a recipe that I found in the BBC Good Food Magazine (November 2012 issue) and that I made over the weekend to take with to a luncheon …and although it called for dark chocolate in the recipe – I had a yearning for some of the creamy white chocolate…

Marble Bundt Cake

300g butter (softened)

300g caster sugar

6 medium eggs

150ml milk

280g self raising flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

100g dark chocolate (I used white)… chopped roughly

25g cocoa powder

Cream together butter and sugar in the food processor
Beat in the eggs, one at a time and then add milk (don’t be alarmed if it looks like the mixture has curdled, it will come together in the next step)
Divid mixture into 2 large bowls
Sift together flour & baking powder
Add half to one bowl with vanilla and chocolate chips (fold in gently)
Add the other half of flour mixture and cocoa to the other bowl (fold in gently)
Spoon the cocoa mixture into the 25cm greased bundt ring and then the vanilla/chocolate mixture
use a chopstick to whirl two mixtures together (without mixing!)
Bake for 50minutes at 190C (until skewer comes out clean)
Leave to cool in the tin for 30minutes
