Directions
Preheat oven to 180°C and grease the baking pan. Cream butter and
sugar; add eggs gradually till the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Add
vanilla extract and mix.
In separate bowl sift together flour, baking powder
and salt. Add the flour mix to egg batter.
Heat water and add it to cocoa powder,
make a smooth paste.In a separate bowl take 1/3 of the batter and mix the
cocoa mixture and stir it well.
In the pan add both the batters
simultaneously and in the end swirl the mixture with skewer if you want the
swirl marble effect (I left it like that). Bake for 35-40 minutes/ or till the
knife comes out clean.
