Marble Chiffon Cake - Birthday Delight

Imagine how great it feels when hubby dear makes a gorgeous cake for me on my birthday! Yes it was last week and he made this wonderful cake for me. The recipe has been taken from Hersheys website. We opted for the Chocolate Glaze :) The great thing about this cake is that it is not too complicated to make and the result is a light and airy cake .... the swirls of vanilla and chocolate in the cake give an element of surprise in every bite! This is definitely worth a try!!
