I always requested a marbled cake for my birthday growing up and had to try this one out. This cake turned out well, but took a bit of tweaking to get there.

The amount of oil seemed high so I used half the oil called for plus applesauce to equal 3/4 cup combined (easiest done by filling a 3/4 measuring cup roughly halfway with oil and spooning in applesauce until it's full). I really think this would work just as well using all applesauce though if you wanted to cut the oil out completely.

Also, the directions tell you to mix the 1/2 c cocoa with remaining 1/4 c milk. Try that and you'll end up with a crumbly mess. I ended up adding closer to 1/2 c soy milk to the cocoa to get about the consistency of melted chocolate so I could mix it into the 2nd half of the batter without overmixing the batter. This extra liquid gave me a good consistency to the chocolate batter. I used vegan mini chocolate chips and they're a nice little burst of chocolate in the cake.

The resulting cake is nice and moist and very pretty with just a dusting of powdered sugar, though a simple glaze would be great as well. =)
