Nigella's Marble Cake

I tried to make this a few weeks ago and mis-read the instructions by adding the cocoa to the whole mix... I got it right this time but my new bundt tin made the cake stick so I now have two halves, grrr. It tastes nice tho...!

For about 20 slices you need:
250g butter, plain flour and caster sugar
1/2 tsp bicarb
1 & 1/2 tsp baking powder
juice and zest of an orange
1 tbsp milk
2 tbsp cocoa powder
4 eggs

Place everything APART from the milk and cocoa powder into a food processor and blitz till it forms a smooth batter. Take out half and add it to the milk and cocoa powder. Grease a tin and dollop in alternate spoonfuls of the batter. Swirl with a skewer to make the marbled effect. Bake in a moderate oven for 30-45 mins till risen and cooked. Leave to cool and then scoff.
