1 and 1/2 cups of sugar
1 cup of milk
1 cup of grape seed oil
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon of vanilla

1

Mix 4 eggs and 1 and 1/2 cups of sugar for 5 to 10 minutes until creamy and doubled in size.

2

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla and mix until combined.

3

Add 1 cup of full cream milk and 1 cup of grape seed oil, mixing on medium speed.

4

Sift together 2 cups and 1/4 of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in thirds, mixing gently to avoid over-mixing.

6

Use a spatula to ensure everything is mixed together.

7

Divide the batter into two equal parts, placing one half in a measuring cup.

8

Sift 1/4 cup of dark cocoa powder into the second half of the batter and mix with a spatula.

9

In a prepared baking form sprayed with non-stick oil, add the white batter first.

10

Pour the chocolate batter on top, swirling it around to create a marbled effect.

11

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.

12

After 40 minutes, check the cake; it should look amazing with visible marble colors.

13

Let the cake cool for 5 to 10 minutes before running a knife around the edges to prevent sticking.

14

Flip the cake onto a cake stand and cut a slice to show the inside.
