  • The first step is to beat the 5 eggs with the sugar, using an egg beater.

  • You want the eggs to become double in volume, fluffy, and have a withish color.

  • This is an important step to make the cake moist!

  • The eggs are ready when they become very thick -

  • you can actually create a 'ribbon' with the batter when you pour some of it with a spoon over the rest of the batter!

  • Add the vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and the baking powder to the egg mixture.

  • Continue mixing for a few seconds until well incorporated.

  • Melt the butter (either in the microwave or in a sauce pan).

  • Add the melted butter to the egg mixture while continuously stirring.

  • Sift the flour over the egg mixture and gently fold all the ingredients together using a spatula, until well incorporated.

  • Split the batter, equally, into 2 separate bowls

  • In one portion we are going to add melted dark chocolate, and the other one melted white chocolate.

  • If you dont like white chocolate you can skip it, or you can replace the dark chocolate with cocoa powder.

  • You can even create your own flavors, for example, strawberry and chocolate, or green tea and white chocolate!

  • Melt the dark chocolate and white chocolate separately.

  • Preheat your oven to 360 F / 180 C.

  • Add the melted dark chocolate to one portion of the batter.

  • Then add the melted white chocolate to the other portion of the batter.

  • Mix well.

  • Butter your cake mold, then place parchment paper in it (I am using an 8" rectangular cake pan).

  • The reason we need to butter the pan before the parchment paper is to get the paper to stick to the pan, otherwise, the paper will not stick!

  • Cut the border of the parchment paper with scissors to get even borders.

  • First pour half of the white chocolate batter in the pan.

  • Then cover it with the entire dark chocolate batter, use a spatula to spread evently.

  • Finally pour the rest of the white chocolate batter on top of the chocolate batter.

  • Insert the knife in the batter and move it around to create swirles.

  • Bake the cake for around 45 minutes or until it is done.

  • It will become golden brown, and when you press the top of the cake it feels firm.

  • Remove the cake from the pan and let it cool down!

  • Bon Appetit!
