4. Whip the egg whites in (E) until foamy. Then add the remaining (E) ingredients. Continue whipping until soft peaks. Add it into the cheese mixture from step (3). Mix until well incorporated. Reserve 100g of the cheese batter and mix with (F) to make chocolate batter.
5. Pour the plain batter onto the prepared pan. Then drip the chocolate batter on top. Swirl to make marble pattern.
