2. Line and grease 9″ Round Tin
3. Whisk Ingredients A at high speed until thick and fluffy.
4. Fold in Ingredients B and mix well.
5. Take out 1/3 of the batter and fold in Ingredients C.
6. Scoop 2 tbsp of plain batter into the centre of the tin. Top with 1 tbsp of chocolate batter. Do not level the batter and repeat until batter is finished.
7. Sprinkle some nibbed almonds on the top.
