Zebra Cake with Chocolate

Ingredients

• Sugar 10 oz
• Farm fresh eggs 3 pieces
• Cocoa Powder 2 tablespoons
• Wheat Flour 5 oz
• Baking Powder 1 teaspoon
• Sour Cream 5 oz
• Butter 5 oz
• Chocolate 5 oz
• Salt a pinch

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Separate the eggs into whites and yolks.

Step 2

Add sugar to the yolks. Mix well.

Step 3

Add sour cream to the mixture and mix again.

Step 4

Melt the butter (100 g) in the microwave or on the stove and add it to the batter.

Step 5

Mix the flour and baking powder, sift through a sieve. Gently mix and bring to a uniform mass.

Step 6

Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Fold the beaten egg whites into the mixture, gently mixing with a spatula.

Step 8

Divide the resulting batter into 2 equal parts.

Step 9

To one part, add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and mix well to avoid lumps.

Step 10

Prepare a baking pan by greasing the bottom and sides with butter, and start layering.

Step 11

Pour the batter into the center of the pan alternately - a spoonful of white, a spoonful of dark. This way, the layers will not mix and will maintain their pattern during baking.

Step 12

Preheat the oven to 180–390°F and bake for 40–50 minutes.

Step 13

Melt the chocolate, adding 30 grams of butter, and spread it over the surface of the cake.

Step 14

The cake can be served either hot or cold. Enjoy your meal!
