Bake It


I haven't tried this one yet, but it seems simple enough.
Looks delicious and quite fancy.
I wonder if you can add food coloring too???


Zebra Cake

INGREDIENTS

2 ½ cups of flour
1 cup of olive oil
1 cup of Sprite (or other fizzy drink)
1 cup of sugar
5 eggs
2 tablespoons of cocoa
2 heaping tsp baking powder
3 tablespoons vanilla sugar
DIRECTIONS
  1. Whisk eggs with sugar until mixed. In a separate bowl sift flour and baking soda and mix together.
  2. Begin adding the ingredients to the sugar / egg mix. Start by adding a quarter of each of the others (flour, olive oil, sprite) at a time and whisking until combined. Repeat until all are added and then mix in the vanilla sugar.
  3. Separate the entire mix into two equal bowls. In one bowl add two tablespoons extra of plain flour and mix. In the second add the cocoa and mix.
  4. Take a lined cake tin and pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of the white mixture into the centre, creating a small circle. Next take 2 to 3 tablespoons of the dark mixture and repeat. If you’re careful you should find concentric circles of alternating colors forming in the tin. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
  5. Bake in an oven at 180 degrees for 50 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean.
