NOTE: One day my husband Pat wanted a marble cake. So, I improvised.
To make a marble cake from this recipe, simply reserve one third of
the cake batter before putting in the cake pans. Then, melt one
square unsweetened or semi-sweet chocolate either over boiling water
or in the microwave oven. Stir to blend. Add to the cake mixture and
mix well. Put one half of the chocolate batter in each cake pan in
dolops, and swirl carefully, so as not to mix the white batter with
the chocolate. What you are trying to achieve in a marble effect.
Bake as directed. (BTW, this is GREAT!!)
