6. Once combined divide the mixture into 2 bowls

7. In one mixture add the cocoa & mix

9. In a lined baking loaf tray spoon the mixture layering it almost like a chess pattern until both mixtures are used, then gently move a knife through the mixture to create a marble effect.

10. Bake for 40 minutes at 180 degrees or until a knife comes out clean in the centre of the cake

11. Wait until the cake is completely cooled and remove from tin
