Zebra Cake

Okay, this is from itsralphablueberry on YouTube. The cake was pretty good but I ruined it with a terrible cream cheese frosting.

Here's the video for the recipe:

 

Combine eggs and sugar. Beat until the mixture is creamy and light

Add milk and oil. Gradually add the flour and baking powder to the wet ingredients and beat just until the batter is smooth (DO NOT OVERBEAT)

 

Divide the mixture into 2 equal portions. Add vanilla flavouring to one. Add cocoa powder into another and mix well.

 

Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Scoop 3 tablespoons of plain batter into the middle of the baking pan. Then scoop 3 tablespoons of cocoa batter and pour it in the center on top of the plain batter. Repeat.

 

Bake in the oven for about 40 minutes. Do not open the oven door at least the first 20 minutes.
