Encores

What else you’ll need

For the dough:

• 200 g soft margarine or butter
• 3 medium eggs
• 1 tbsp water for the dark dough

For the baking tin:

• A little starch

Preparation

Make the dough

1. Preheat a conventional oven to around 180°C (fan approx. 160°C). Grease a loaf tin (25 cm) and dust it with starch.
2. Put the baking mix, soft margarine or butter and the eggs in a mixing bowl and mix with an electric hand mixer (whisk) briefly on the lowest setting at first, then on the highest setting for around 3 minutes, until creamy.

Bake

1. Now add 2/3 of the dough to the loaf tin and mix the cocoa mixture into the rest of the dough with a tablespoon of water. Then spread the dark dough onto the light dough and use a fork to create spiral shapes through both layers of dough, producing a marble structure.
2. Bake the cake on the middle shelf of the preheated oven for around 60 minutes. After around 15 minutes’ baking time, make a cut lengthwise in the cake around 1 cm deep.
3. Use a wooden skewer to check whether the cake is ready before taking it out of the oven. After baking, remove the cake from the tray and place on a wire rack to cool.
