MAKING A MARBLE CAKE (LIFE CHANGING)... (BANANA BREAD FAIL)

I made a marble cake and then made it again and again because it is SO SO GOOD!
FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM: / elzani__
MARBLE CAKE RECIPE:
175g butter
175g caster sugar
200g self raising flour
3 eggs
40g cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (I used vanilla bean paste)
2 tbsp milk (added to the chocolate half of the mixture)
oven 160 degrees celsius (fan oven)
line 2lb loaf tin with baking paper
cream butter and sugar then add the eggs, mix and then add vanilla and mix. Sift flour and add to mixture and mixy mix again...
divide the batter into 2 portions, then add cocoa powder to one of the portions and the milk (I added it to the half i left in the kitchen aid bowl then I could mix the rest easily)...
Then get a big spoon and blob some of the vanilla mixture in, then a blob of the chocolate and keep doing this until all mixture is in the loaf tin (I tried to add the choc on top of a blob of vanilla or right next to etc to make sure it should be marbled). Then I used a long skewer thingy to swirl the mixture slightly, then I put in in the oven for 50 - 60 mins (until skewer comes out clean).

[@ericaroozendaal629]

You’re so full of life and good energy! I feel like you are catching up on the joy of living to the full extend. So inspiring and contagious honestly. Also when you don’t bake a banana cake during quarantine, you are not properly in quarantine, haha! I am now thinking of combining the best of two worlds: a chocolate banana marble cake!

[@oliviadavies9548]

U look beautiful and glowing and even your hair is shinier and so much thicker, and you seem to be truly happy which is so inspiring especially in recovery xx

[@monsterfia]

You look so happy and that makes me so happy! Sending you lots of love💞

[@elzanisingleton]

Sofia Jonsson aww I am so happy and I’m so glad you’re happy! Sending lots of love straight back 😄

[@SuperJdawg999]

She has been showing some food on her instagram if you’d like to check it out. I think the caption is usually surrounding what she’s eaten in the day :)

[@jayye.8886]

[@bigkahunaburger1782]

you look so genuinely happy and sweet when you smile!

[@louise1205]

I’m a fairly new subscriber and also someone who has had issues with my weight over the years. I’m in my 30’s now so a good bit older than you and I just want to say how amazing you have done with putting on weight and learning to enjoy food again. I wasted the whole of my 20’s underweight and I wish I could go back in time and relive them with how I am living my life now with food. You should be so proud of yourself hun, you are an absolute joy to watch and deserve to have so many more followers, you are such a fab role model for young girls struggling with weight/food and i just want to wish you all the best in life! Take care!

[@lunabun27]
