Mix the eggs with the sugar, a pinch of salt, the oil, and the milk. Split this batter in half.
To one half, add 1.3 cups of flour, 1 tsp of baking powder, and the vanilla extract. Mix well.
To the other half, add the remaining flour (1 cup), 1 tsp of baking powder, and the cocoa powder. Mix well.
In a greased cake pan, place 3 Tbsp of the cocoa batter in the center.
Then, still in the center, place 3 Tbsp of the vanilla batter on top of the cocoa batter.
Repeat the process, alternating 3 tablespoons of cocoa and vanilla batter.
Bake for 40 minutes at 350°F (180°C).
And there you have it, your zebra cake is ready!
