Chec simplu marmorat
Reteta aceasta, cu mici modificari, apartine Jamilei. E un chec simplu, pufos, aromat care imi aminteste de copilarie. Modificarea adusa de mine se refera la cantitatea de ulei. Prima oara l-am facut respectand reteta, dar mi s-a parut cam prea uscat pentru gustul meu, asa ca a doua oara am adaugat mai mult ulei pentru a fi mai umed si a se pastra mai bine.

ENGLISH
This marbled loaf cake is proper comfort food! And it looks amazing! I’ve made this one a few times now so I can say that you get a great result every single time! It’s not a fancy cake but it’s fluffy and delicious. I used vanilla and orange to flavor this one, but feel free to use your favorite seasoning. Furthermore, if you’re feeling adventurous you can replace the cocoa powder with Matcha for a different color and flavor.
