This Mango Chocolate Marble Cake is for the second Home
Baker’s Challenge started by Priya Suresh and hosted by Sangee Vijay. This month challenge was to
bake mango and chocolate cake announced by. Sangee Vijay. Though she gave both
egg and the eggless version, I chose to do the eggless and the butter less
version which was simply superb and yummy. This cake is
delicious, with a unique taste of Mango and chocolate together. In home
everyone loved the marble effect on the cake. The whole cake disappeared within
an hour. I am sure to bake it again soon.
