(by Shirley McNevich)
2 cups flour
3/4 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 cup white sugar
2 TBSP butter (melted)
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup egg beaters (must be cold but not frozen)
1 tsp. vanilla
2 TBSP Hershey's cocoa
In a bowl add flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda--stir and set aside. In a separate bowl add white sugar and melted butter--use a whisk to mix. Add buttermilk--whisk again. Add egg beaters and vanilla--whisk until smooth. Add flour mixture to the egg beater mixture--stir with a spoon until smooth. Reserve 2/3 cup of the batter. Add the cocoa to the reserved 2/3 cup of batter--stir until smooth. Pour the vanilla portion of batter into a greased bread loaf pan (8.5 x 4.5 x 2 1/2"). Place spoonfuls of the reserved chocolate batter all over the top of the vanilla batter in the loaf pan. Use a table knife to swirl the chocolate batter into the vanilla batter until marbled. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes--test with a toothpick for doneness. Cool on a rack for 15 minutes before removing loaf from pan. Cool completely before cutting.
