    I love Nutella! Especially spread on a piece of french bread that is still hot from the toaster and all crusty on the outside, soft on the inside and warm enough to gently melt the nutella.

    So today I wanted to share something about my love for this yummy chocolate spread with a marble cake recipe you will hopefully appreciate as much as I do. Btw, it is relatively very easy to make ;)

    Cedric’s Vanilla/Nutella marble cake
    Make 8 servings

    Ingredients 

    - 125 g of plain yogurt
    - 175 g of sugar
    - 210 g of flour
    - 100 g of canola oil
    - 85 g of Nutella
    - 3 eggs
    - 1 teaspoon of salt
    - 1 packet of vanilla sugar (~8 g)
    - 15g of baking powder (or 1 pack of French “Levure alsacienne”)

    Main cookwares and baking utensils 

    - 2 large bowl
    - 1 8 inch pan
    - 1 whisker

    Preparation

    - Preheat the oven at 380 degrees Fahrenheit
    - Prepare the baking pan by spreading some baking spray (or butter) at the bottom. 

    Making the batter

    - In one large bowl, mix the eggs
    - Add the sugar, then the flour, the yeast and the salt.
    - While keep mixing add the yogurt and then the oil.
    - Divide half of the batter into the other bowl and mix it with the Nutella.

    Baking the cake

    - Bake for 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle of the pan comes out clean.
    - Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving. 

    Cedric’s tips 

    - Watch this cake very carefully! If it cooked for too long it won’t be moist and will dry within a couple of days.

    Serving suggestions

    - This cake goes well with any kind of ice-cream. Vanilla is a classic option.

    Bon appétit!
