CHOCOLATE & ORANGE MARBLE CAKE
First cake I ever learned to make was a marble cake. It was for my Brownie Troops Cookbook. I remember being very proud because I had taken 3rd place with my mom's recipe. I hope you will enjoy this modern version. We like our chocolate cake to be on the sweet side, I have changed the measurement you may use less sugar, if you prefer.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease a deep 9-inch tube pan and dust with flour, put aside until needed.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Next beat in the eggs, one at a time then add vanilla.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, making 3 additions of dry and 2 of the milk.
- Put half the batter in a smaller bowl and stir in the melted chocolate chips and cocoa. Mix well.
- Stir the orange rind and liquer into the remaining batter.
- Pour half the orange batter into the a prepared tube pan.
- Then in a random fashion spoon the chocolate batter overtop of the orange batter and finish with the rest of the orange batter.
- Swirl a knife, through the batter to create marble effect.
- Bake in 350°F oven for about 1 hour check and see if cake is done, if not keep in until a skewer inserted in centre of cake comes out clean, shouldn't take longer than 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
- Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto wire rack to cool.
- When ready to serve dust with a little icing sugar.
