choco vanilla sponge cake

Ok to tell you the truth,this cake started of as a marble cake and ended up as a choco vanilla sponge cake.I got the recipe from another blogger 'Edible garden',her cake had beautiful swirls and the name 'marble cake ' suited it. In my cake the chocolate was dominating hence cannot see proper swirls.But the cake was amazing,it had a nice outer crust and soft and spongy inside.Its a perfect tea time cake.We could not even wait for it to cool down and like my cousin Debs said "the house smells heavenly"
