Not your ordinary marble cake, although just as easy to make! The coffee adds a new dimension to this wonderfully moist and springy cake, while the crumb topping lends a hint of texture.

Medium Vegetarian Pescatarian Gluten Free Passover Parve

Contains: Tree nuts, Egg

Directions

Make the Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

  2. Prepare crumb topping: In a small bowl, place all topping ingredients. Stir with a fork until well combined; set aside.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat egg yolks until pale yellow; add 3/4 cup sugar halfway through. Add next 7 ingredients; mix well.

  4. In a separate bowl, using clean, dry beaters, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 3/4 cup sugar and continue beating until whites are stiff. Stir a small amount of egg white mixture into yolk mixture, mix, then fold in the rest.

  5. Separate off 1/4–1/3 batter and add marbleizing ingredients; mix well. Pour coffee batter into a 9- x 13-inch (23×33-cm) pan. Pour the chocolate batter over it in a gentle drizzle, covering most of coffee batter. Run a knife horizontally back and forth through the batter to achieve a marbleized effect.

  6. Sprinkle crumb topping evenly over cake and bake for 1 hour, or until top springs back when touched.

I would not recommend making this recipe if you would like to use flour. This recipe is for Pesach will not be easy to convert. By regular marble cake recipe we mean one like this >> https://www.kosher.com/search/recipes?k=marble%20cake&nd=on

It's a Pesach recipe. It's not so easy to substitute flour for the starch. I would try to use a year round marble recipe.
