  5. Divide the batter into two equal parts and add the cacao powder into one of them. Mix it very well.
  6. Cover the baking pan with parchment paper. Put two tablespoons of the vanilla batter in the middle of the pan. Add two tablespoons of the chocolate batter on top of the vanilla batter and repeat the process until you’re out of the batter.
