Chicken Floss Chiffon Cake

Wanted to make a salty sweet Chiffon Cake, so bought some chicken floss and start making this cake.

The end result is good, cake is eaten up by the family within a day.  Only thing I am not happy is I add the chicken floss in between the batter but the top batter push the floss to 1 end.  The end product is not as good looking as I wanted.

On the 2nd day I made a Chocolate cake, try baking half of the batter for 10 mins and add extra chocolate chips on the centre of the cake and continue baking with the remaining batter, the result was good.

Here are my recipe :-

4 TBSP Oil

5 Yolks + 1 whole egg

6 TBSP Milk

1 TSP Vanilla Extract

1/2 TSP Salt

1 Cup Cake Flour

1 TSP Baking Powder

6 TBSP Sugar

5 Egg White

1/8 TSP Cream of Tar Tar

5 TBSP Sugar

Fill up centre Layer with Chicken Floss

Oreo Cake

Today Justen went for Tuition and Rayen went for swimming, I felt better after some rest, so thought to make something that they like.  Oreo are kids favorite, adding it in to the cake should taste good too.  I used the 7 eggs today as left with quite a number of eggs.  No milk so replace with leftover fresh cream, left about 1/2 cup and I add some water tot will be too thick if didn't add water. 1 added 5 oreo biscuit in the yolk batter.

Oreo a bit heavy so part of them sink to the bottom of my cake.  Overall is still a good try.

Strawberry Yogurt Chiffon Cake

My eldest sis birthday is coming, so tot to make her a birthday cake.
1st thing come into my mind is Strawberry so tot why not make a Strawberry Cake for her.

I made 1 simple chiffon cake on Friday evening, and plan to decorate it on Saturday.

On the next day I saw my cake become a Pac man cake...

Hubby didn't aware of my plan and share it with my kids.  The 1st cake is more like a vanilla cake as the yogurt didn't really have a strong intensive smell of strawberry.

So I have to made another cake and postpone my visiting to her house on Sunday.
As I have more time to plan I decided to shop for Strawberries, Strawberries essence and 1 more bottle of Strawberry Yogurt Drink (and just found out that the drink is filled with nata nicoco.)
I smashed 5 Strawberries and added a bit of food coloring to make the cake look even more yummy.
I am very proud of my creation although my BIL tot the one selling outside is more yummier.

But mine is much more healthier lor...

Lazy Chiffon Cake

Using only measuring spoon and cup to do this cake.

I think all recipe should change it to this way easier for lazy pple who love to bake like me, but hate to wash.

FIL tried my cake and said is not oily so he like it.

Honey Orange Chiffon Vs Old Fashion Butter Cake

Made a Honey Chiffon cake for my SIL's family,

As her hb cannot take too sweet stuff, I tot honey and fresh orange should be a good replacement from sugar and milk.  Sound so much healthier right...  Anyway end product is so light but too moist, think I need to reduce on the juice or bake longer.

The above is a bit too light for my liking I decided to make a butter cake.

Got the Recipe from Nasi Lemak Lover

But I change a bit due to I only have Unsalted Butter and don't know what is Vanilla, so I replacing it with vanilla extract.

Butter cake turn out to be more fluffy and moist compare to the one I did early this month.

Brought some for my colleagues and they are said that is yummy!

Think people will think that I am crazy to make 2 cakes in a night about 2.5hrs.  With more practice I can actually reduce the things to wash as well as the baking process.  Very proud of myself.

My Chiffon 心路历陈

See my pandan cake who prefer to be a Kueh...

 Tried so many times and finally succeeded, is it due to the new Oven?
Anyway love my new oven who bought by my dear.

He is always so supportive on what I am doing, buying tools for me and clean for me after the mess I made in the kitchen as well as finished all those Kueh Kueh.

Gula Melaka Chiffon Cake

Sister in law told me that her 1st chiffon cake is not successful.

Actually is quite normal for beginner as baking a chiffon cake is not very easy as it look.

From the egg selection to egg beating, folding, and bring it into oven...

Tips on Making a nice chiffon :-

• Egg must be room temperature
• No egg yolk should be swimming in egg white
• Egg white should not touch with water or grease
• No lining of paper is required
• Temperate should not be too high, but if not high enough it will not rise nicely. (this is by trial and error as the user know their oven best) For my oven I set it at 160c, wanted to try on a higher temp to test water.
• all the ingredient adding with Egg yolk can do it in any order but not for egg white.
• Egg white only need to beat till soft peak.
• Folding the egg white partially into the yolk mixture.  This is to prevent air from escaping from the egg white mixture.
• Hit a few time after batter is transfer to the container.
• Put it into the pre heated oven
• Bake till done!

Back to my Gula Melaka Chiffon Cake, I put 1 whole pc of palm sugar into the coconut mixture and double boil it when the sugar is going to melt I added egg yolk and remove it out of the heat.  Mix it with flour.  This portion can anyhow mix, as it won't affect the final product.  Tested as I put the oil last.

No changes on ingredient for egg white mixture.

Love the end product very much as it is soft and spongy with nice coconut favor.

Chocolate Chiffon Cake

Chocolates are my hb and kids favorite so I must try doing it, I don't like to look at recipe, just change and switch the ingredient and "ta ta" here is my yummy chocolate chiffon cake.

Replacing Milk to Chocolate Milk
120g of flour to 100g flour and 20g of cocoa powder

Only problem I am facing now is that all my chocolate chip sink to the ground.

Pandan Chiffon

Making 2 pastries today, Pandan Chiffon cake using the same recipe for Lemon Chiffon...

Initially when I put the batter into the mold I am so worry that it might become a Kueh again.  As the mixture is more watery compared to Lemon Chiffon due to the 1 tsp of pandan paste that I added.

End result was satisfactory... MIL say that it is spongy and moist.

Lemon Chiffon Cake

I tried many time on making a Chiffon cake and always failed.

End product always turn into kueh.

I love the texture and the taste of it, I love the ingredient which is not so sinful as butter cake.

I have all the ingredient stated in the book and follow step by step in the guide.

Finally my 1st Chiffon cake is born.

The Lemon favour is very strong that kids don't really fancy it, but is ok I can always convert it into a Cheese

Chiffon cake or a Chocolate Chiffon cake to win their heart.
