Marble Chiffon Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 1/4 cups sifted cake flour
    1 1/2 cups sugar
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup salad oil
    7 egg yolks
    3/4 cup cold water
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    7 egg whites
    1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
    1/4 cup boiling water
    2 tablespoons sugar
    2 ounces unsweetened chocolate squares
Preparation
    Sift together the cake flour, 1 1/2 cups sugar, baking powder and salt.
    Make a well in the center of dry ingredients and add in order: salad oil, egg yolks, cold water, and vanilla. Beat until satin smooth.
    In a large bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tarter until very stiff peaks form. If there is a speck of grease or egg yolk, the whites won't whip up!
    Pour egg yolk mixture in thin stream over entire surface of the egg whites, GENTLY folding to blend.
    Remove 1/3 of the batter to a separate bowl.
    Blend together the boiling water, 2 Tbsp sugar and unsweetened chocolate, melted; cool.
    Gently fold chocolate mixture into 1/3 portion of batter.
    Spoon half the light batter into UNGREASED 10 inch tube pan; top with half the chocolate batter. Repeat layers. With narrow spatula or butter knife, swirl gently through batters to marble. Leave definite areas of light and dark batters.
    Bake in a 325 degree oven, about 65 minutes or till cake springs back when pressed lightly with finger.
    Invert cake in pan and cool completely before removing from pan.
