How to Achieve a Marble Cake Look!

I tried this recipe today from Anna Olson's Back to Baking cook book and it was pretty good! It was my first time making a marbled dessert and as you can see it turned out quite well.

*You can do this to any simple vanilla cake mix to make it more fun! Just split your cake mix in half and add melted semi-sweet chocolate to one half. 

To achieve a marbled look, you first dollop the chocolate and vanilla batter alternatively into the loaf pan. Then you use a paring knife to carefully make swirls in the batter. This is done by dragging the knife around in various directions a few times.

And there you have it, a marble cake!
