Beat in half of the milk and half of the sifted flour mixture, then beat in the remaining milk and flour mixture.
Whip until the batter is smooth and creamy.

Pour a little less than half of the cake batter into the medium mixing bowl that you rinsed out.
Whisk in the cocoa powder mixture till fully combined and smooth.
This is your chocolate marbling batter. Reserve the rest of the batter—this is your light cake marbling batter.
Generously grease your loaf pan using butter or cooking spray.
Pour the light and dark cake batters into your loaf pan and marble them. If you need a marbling technique, you can check out this post: How to Marble a Cake.
