Ingredients

  • 34 cup butter, softened
  • 34 cup superfine sugar
  • 3 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1 14 cups self-rising flour, sifted
  • 14 cup cocoa powder, sifted
  • 5 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 orange, zest of, grated

Method

  • Preheat oven at 350 degrees.
  • Lightly grease a ovenproof 10-inch ring mold.
  • In a bowl, mix together the butter and sugar until creamy.
  • Add the beaten eggs, one a time, whisking well after adding each.
  • Using a meal spoon, fold in the flour into the creamed mixture carefully.
  • Then, place half of the flour mixture into a separated bowl.
  • Fold in cocoa into one bowl and half of the orange juice, then mix gently.
  • Fold in the rest of the orange juice, and orange rind into the other bowl, and mix gently.
  • Place spoonfuls of each of the mixtures into the mold, then drag a skewer through the mixture to create that marbled effect.
  • Bake for 30-45 minutes until the cake has risen and a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
