Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a round cake pan.
-
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together in short intervals, stirring until smooth.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until well combined.
-
Add the melted chocolate mixture to the sugar and eggs, mixing well.
-
In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture, alternating with the milk.

Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Divide the batter into two equal parts. Add red food coloring to one part and black food coloring to the other part.
-
Pour the red batter into the prepared cake pan, followed by the black batter.
-
Use a skewer or toothpick to gently swirl the two colors together to create a marbled effect.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate.
-
Divide the melted white chocolate into two parts. Add red gel food coloring to one part and black gel food coloring to the other part.
-
Drizzle the red and black colored white chocolate over the cooled cake to create a gory effect.
-
Let the chocolate set for about 1 hour before serving.
