But do you find that the chocolate paste (cocoa powder +sugar and 1/4 cup water) is too much? It makes the chocolae batter too watery and hence my cake (chocolate portion ended up too moist and dense. Any idea why?Aimeihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11363748782598821252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20249168.post-64320962014612708742007-06-12T23:01:00.000-05:002007-06-12T23:01:00.000-05:00Nora B,Yes, you can use all purpose flour insteads...Nora B,<BR/><BR/>Yes, you can use all purpose flour insteads of cake flour.The conversion is as follow:<BR/>1 cup of cake flour = 1 cup of all purpose flour minus 2 tablespoons and add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch.<BR/>I have not used all purpose flour for this recipe yet though, but I will definitely try it out soon.<BR/><BR/>Lee Ping,<BR/>Opps,I think it's a typo.

I love the use of coffee and cocoa. I have not attempted any "marbleling" effect on cakes before. Good recipe to have and good art to learn and master. If I am successful, I don't have to buy marble pound cakes from Starbucks anymore.<BR/><BR/>p/s Before I learned how to bake, my husband was a big fan of Sara Lee pound cake as well. :)Lee Pinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475657563792298936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20249168.post-31580815789285018452007-06-10T09:30:00.000-05:002007-06-10T09:30:00.000-05:00mm..that does look very god..and it is hard to fin...mm..that does look very god..and it is hard to find low fat recipes that don't have that intruiging cardboard texture..<BR/> thanks for posting the recipe!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
