Adjust the amount of milk accordingly.Add Vanilla essence and mix properly.Add the dried Cranberries and mix. Divide the mixture into two. Keep one portion as it is. To the other half add Cocoa powder and mix well.

  2. I had three little helpers with me aged :3 yrs, 16 months and 10 months!They could hardly wait to cut the cake. So there was no chance of a photograph before the cake was cut!My little niece has cut this cake and mamiu2019s(aunty’s) Marble Cake with Cranberries was a hit with her.
  3. Have to bake it again next weekend for my dear hubby since he could get only a piece of it-indication that the cake came out really well!
