• Evenly distribute spoonfuls of the filling mixture over the cake batter.
• Use a knife to swirl and create marbling patterns throughout the batter.
• Bake in your preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out mostly clean.
• While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking sugar, milk and vanilla until you achieve a smooth consistency.
• Once you remove the cake from the oven drizzle the glaze over it while it’s still warm.
• Allow some time for the cake to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy either warm or at room temperature.
