Marbled Cake. ✠
1 cup butter.
2 cups powdered sugar.
3 cups flour.
4 eggs.
1 cup sweet milk.
½ teaspoonful soda.
1 teaspoonful cream-tartar sifted with flour.
When the cake is mixed take out about a teacupful of the batter, and stir into this a great spoonful of grated chocolate, wet with a scant tablespoonful of milk. Fill your mould about an inch deep with the yellow batter, and drop upon this, in two or three places, a spoonful of the dark mixture. Give to the brown spots a slight stir with the tip of your spoon, spreading it in broken circles upon the lighter surface. Pour in more yellow batter, then drop in the brown in the same manner as before, proceeding in this order until all is used up. When cut, the cake will be found to be handsomely variegated.
