Break the eggs in a separate bowl and beat lightly, add 1/4 cup of the eggs to the butter mixture and beat on medium speed until incorporated. Repeat with the remaining beaten eggs in 3 equal portions. Add vanilla and beat again.
  4. Add half of the flour mixture and beat in low speed until mixed well, then add the remaining flour and beat until no white streaks are visible.

Break the eggs in a separate bowl and beat lightly, add 1/4 cup of the eggs to the butter mixture and beat on medium speed until incorporated. Repeat with the remaining beaten eggs in 3 equal portions. Add vanilla and beat again.
  7. Add half of the flour mixture and beat in low speed until mixed well, then add the remaining flour and beat until no white streaks are visible. Pour the mixtures in the prepared pans beginning with the vanilla mixture and then add a layer of the chocolate mixture. Keep repeating the process until 3/4 the loaf pans. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Let cool in the pans for 30 minutes then invert on a wire rack to cool.
