Chocolate Marble Chiffon Cake

Passe though it may be these days, my family loves marble cake so this lightened-up version appealed to me. I was initially very pleased...it looked good, had excellent texture (light, airy, moist) but unfortunately, the flavour was disappointing......it just didn't have that much.

The method was quite involved and used a lot of dishes: one bowl for whipped egg yolk/sugar mixture, one bowl for beaten egg white, one bowl for chocolate mixture and one bowl for dry ingredients - all of which were combined at various stages to create chocolate and vanilla batters.

There is an issue with the recipe that is either an error of omission in the ingredient listing (which seems unlikely considering how well the cake turned out) or there is an error in step 4, an instruction, which if followed, would result in an all-chocolate cake instead of marble; there is no official correction online from the author or publisher.

It wasn't bad, but for all the effort it took, it should have been great.
