I baked this Marble Cake made from simple butter cake with a little twist. Turned this into marble cake by adding two striking colors, red and green. The color combination is entirely up to you, use 2 or 4 colors if you want.
Accidentally add too much green color to the cake batter so it turns out darker deep tone luckily that doesn't alter its taste.
Cube the butter right after you have removed from the refrigerator.to speed up the creaming process.
In case you have self raising flour, use it but omit the baking powder.
