This marbled loaf is a traditional Romanian dessert usually served in the afternoon along a cup of hot chocolate. It is both easy to prepare and fast, making it a complete success when your sweet tooth asks for something delicious!
Ingredients:
- 50g dark chocolate/milk chocolate
- 50ml milk
- 70g butter
- 85g caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 75g sour cream
- 115g flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Into a small heatproof bowl add small pieces of chocolate and the milk. Set over a saucepan of simmering water and allow a few minutes until all the chocolate has melted and remove from the heat. Cream the butter with the sugar as explained in the previous recipe and add the beaten egg and sour cream. Sift the flour with the baking powder over the mixture and fold in gently with a metal spoon. Mix the chocolate with half of the batter and the vanilla extract with the remaining half. Pour both mixtures in a greased loaf tin and with a fork swirl lightly to obtain the marbled effect. Bake at 160C for about 40-45 minutes or until it has risen to almost double its size. Let it cool for an extra 30 minutes and serve with a cup of hot chocolate or coffee. Enjoy!
Bon Appetit!
