Rich Marble Chocolate Cake Shiela Mambo

Had enough of lassi are you? Okay, now let me serve you with what we had for lunch. Just a simple menu but enough to make the household happy with full tummies! Alhamdulillah......

Since mama got nothing much to say today, let me just update you with one of the experiments tested in the comfort of my kitchen. In fact, it's fresh from the oven because I just took it out about 2 hours ago. I was chatting with Kacip and she had recommended this recipe to me. Since her feedback about this cake is superb, I just had to give it a try. And wallah...it's worth the effort... For those who can't resist, here's the recipe for you to try (with a slight alteration that is).... Thanks to Kacip and Shiela Mambo for sharing this lovely recipe with all of us....
