Ingredients
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons cocoa
2 tablespoons water
Butter (spread)
Powdered sugar (for decoration)
Steps
To begin, preheat the oven to 180°C.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until well combined.
Add the milk and vegetable oil, and mix until smooth.
Gradually add the flour and baking powder, mixing well after each addition, until smooth.
Divide the dough into two equal parts.
In a separate bowl, mix the cocoa and water until smooth.
Add the cocoa paste to one half of the dough and mix until completely incorporated.
In a previously buttered mold, pour half of the batter without cocoa and spread it evenly.
Pour the other half of the batter (with cocoa) on the white batter and spread it evenly.
Using a fork, create a swirl effect by passing the fork through both batters.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Once baked, let the cake cool in the mold.
Sprinkle powdered sugar on the cooled cake before serving.
I hope you enjoy this delicious recipe and the preparation process!
TIPS:
Mix evenly: When combining the liquid and dry ingredients, make sure to mix them evenly to obtain a smooth and homogeneous batter.
Do not overbeat: When mixing the batter, avoid overbeating to prevent the cake from being tough. Mix just enough to combine the ingredients.
Prepare the pan properly: Make sure to grease and flour the pan before pouring the batter to make it easier to remove the cake once baked.
Check for doneness: While baking, check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. If not, continue baking and check every few minutes.
Let the cake cool before serving: Let the cake cool in the pan before attempting to remove it. This will help it retain its shape and prevent it from breaking.
Decorate as desired: Once the cake has cooled completely, you can decorate it with powdered sugar or other additional ingredients, such as whipped cream or fresh fruit, depending on your preference.
With these tips, you can successfully prepare a delicious cake and surprise your loved ones with a delicious and colorful homemade dessert. Enjoy the preparation and the moment of sharing this sweet treat!
