MARBLE CHIFFON CAKE

There are some random moments when we crave for cake but to the level that we only want one slice. That moment often happens to me which leads to me buying a stock of cake slices from Goldilocks and Red Ribbon. One of my favorite cake is definitely the marble slice. If I buy 10 cake slices, 5 of them would be the marble slice. This made me wonder if I really wanted just a slice or a whole cake.

Since I bought a new loaf pan, I thought of it as a sign to try and make my own marble chiffon cake. With the various cake flavors I can try with my new loaf pan, I had listed a number of reasons why marble chiffon cake would be the perfect one to try. As a fan of marble cake slices, it would be a lot cheaper if I make my own at home. I also saw this opportunity to try to change my niece’s favorite cake flavor. She likes the red velvet cake so much and I will try to make the marble chiffon cake her new favorite. Marble chiffon cake has the right level of sweetness especially when eaten as a snack instead of a dessert. If the swirls are well distributed, this light chiffon cake will have small hints of chocolate and coffee goodness! With lesser calories compared to flavoured cakes, I can enjoy my cake whenever I want. This chiffon cake is spongy and lightly dense. The last thing would be its marble look. The swirls make it more appetizing to eat.

HOW TO COOK MARBLE CHIFFON CAKE

Just like any other cake, making a marble chiffon cake will take a few but simple steps. The first thing to do is to prepare your cocoa paste. Simply mix some cocoa powder with water. In this recipe, I also included some coffee powder for some hint of caffeine. Instead of just chocolate flavor, there will some kind of mocha flavor in this paste.

Start your cake batter by whisking your egg whites with sugar and vanilla until soft peaks. This will ensure that your cake will end up fluffy and cloudy. The next thing to do is to add the other ingredients one by one until you achieve a thick and nice cake batter. Remember to sift the flour before adding to avoid lumps. Fold the mixture using a spatula to incorporate some air into the batter. Separate some batter and mix it with the cocoa paste made earlier.

Now, here is the fun part—designing the cake! Pour half of the batter into a loaf pan and then add 3 scoops of the cocoa batter. Swirl the cocoa batter using a stick to create a marble effect. I swear this part is so satisfying! It is much like painting your own cake. Pour the rest of the batter and repeat the marbling steps. Since this a no-oven recipe, preheat your pan before pan-baking the marble chiffon cake. When the edges are starting to brown, then the cake is done. Let the cake cool before serving. You can also try to pour some glaze if you like. Enjoy your homemade no-oven marble chiffon cake! Remember to share some for your friends and family.
