Prep Work: Pre-heat oven at 180C

• In a medium bowl, sieve together flour, baking powder, baking soda & keep aside. (Dry Ingredients)
• In another bowl, whisk oil & sugar, till it forms a creamy mixture. Add eggs, vanilla extract, water and vinegar. Whisk on medium speed till everything is mixed together completely.
• Now, lightly fold in (mix) the dry ingredients to the above mixture slowly making sure no lumps are formed.
• In the third medium bowl, divide half of the cake batter and add cocoa powder, coffee powder and whisk to form a smooth chocolaty batter. 
• (Now you’ll have two equal batter, one plain & one with chocolate flavor)
• Take the baking tin, pour 2tbsp of plain batter, pour 2tbsp of chocolate batter over it, continue the steps one by one till both batter are finished (Pic 1).
• Now take a toothpick and make web design or any design as per choice and Bake at 180C for 40 min. (Pic 2)
• Do the toothpick test: Insert a toothpick at the center of the cake and if it comes out clean, cake is done.
• Cool the cake and then serve as desired.
