Directions
1. Preheat oven to 180° C. Brush a gugelhupf pan with melted butter to
lightly grease.
2. Beat the caster sugar, melted butter till
it is smooth. Add egg yolks and mix in the flour and milk.
3. Use an electric beater to whisk the egg whites in a bowl until soft peaks form. Gently and gradually fold the egg white into the cake mixture.
4. Pour half the cake mixture into the pan.
5. Combine cocoa and extra milk in a bowl. Stir into remaining cake mixture until combined. Spoon into pan. Use a round-bladed knife to fold together cake mixtures until marbled.
