Marble Cake(vanilla and chocolate cake mix)

Confused to eat vanilla or chocolate cake?Then this is for you..!!
This cake looks complicated but it's actually one batter divided into two portions and then melted chocolate is added to one portion.

Ingredients:
Dry ingredients:
  • semisweet chocolate chopped/chocochips -1/3 cup
  • all purpose flour-1 cup+2 tbsp
  • granulated white sugar- 1/2 cup+2 tbsp
  • baking powder- 1 1/4 tsp
  • baking soda-1/4 tsp
  • salt- 1/4 tsp
Wet ingredients:
  • unsalted butter/oil-0.4 cup
  • eggs- 2 large (room temperature)
  • vanilla extract- 3/4 tsp
  • plain yogurt-3 tbsp(room temperature)
  • milk- 1/4 cup(room temperature)
Process:
1) Keep all the ingredients ready at room temperature.
2) In a bowl beat butter/oil and sugar until well combined. Now add eggs one after another and beat thoroughly. Add all the dry ingredients(except chocolate) into wet mixture and mix the batter well.
3)Now melt the chocolate using double boiler method/in microwave.
4)Remove a little more than half of the batter and place into a separate bowl. To the remaining batter stir, or beat, in the melted chocolate.
Now, you have vanilla and chocolate cake batters.
5)Place the batters into the prepared cake pan by alternating spoonfuls of vanilla batter with the chocolate batter.
6) Then, with the end of a knife, gently draw swirls through the batter to marbleize it. 
           Don't over mix.

You can just enjoy the cake as it/dust it with some powdered sugar/chocolate ganache.
