Zebra cake recipe

It is a marble cake with zebra pattern. made with vanilla flavoured and chocolate flavoured batter for the white and brown colour in the zebra pattern.

I have used hand blender in this recipe. You can either use it for even use a normal mixer blender or whisker but make sure it is lump free and smooth. Instead of vanilla-chocolate flavour you can even use vanilla-strawberry , pineapple-chocolate and any other combinations of your choice can be tried out.
