Notes

For added flavor, consider a splash of vanilla extract in the batter. To achieve a perfect marble effect, gently drag a knife through the layers of batter before baking. Store the cake in an airtight container; it will stay fresh for up to 3-4 days at room temperature or up to a week in the refrigerator. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
