It typically uses a mixer and lots of bowls. It’s a marble cake. But not anymore. This marble cake is the easiest (and really delicious) version you’ve ever made.

Everyone loves a good, fluffy marble cake. Preferably with a nice crust. A bit wet, but not too wet. You know what we mean here.
But every woman loves a clean kitchen. Are we right? We thought so.
