Chocolate, Banana Marble Cake
This is a rich but delicious cake which is not to sickly because of its lack of icing.
Difficulty and servings
Serves 10
Preparation and cooking times
- Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- In another bowl mash up 1-2 bananas (we used 1 1/2 ) then fold them into the butter and sugar.
- In a separate mug whisk two eggs together and add to the mixture.
- Fold in the flour and baking powder.
- Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat and add the cocoa powder.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into a separate bowl with the sugar in and mix well.
- Add another two whisked eggs and mix. Fold in the flour and baking powder.
- Put one spoonful of chocolate mixture into a 20cm deep round tin then a spoonful of banana in next to it. Repeat multiple times until all the mixture is in the tin. You should now have a spotty pattern. Take a metal skewer and draw figure-eights in the mixture. It should now have a marbled look.
- Cook in a gas mark 5 / 170c fan preheated oven for 45 minutes or until golden and a skewer comes out clean.
- When cooled sprinkle with banana chips and / or cocoa powder.
