Chocolate chiffon cake details
INGREDIENTS:A:
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup castor sugar
1 1/4 cup high ratio/cake/superfine flour, sifted
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla essence
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup warm water
B:
4 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 cup castor sugar
Method:
- Mix all Ingredients in A in a mixing bowl. Beat until a consistent and smooth mixture is obtained.
- In another clean bowl, whip egg whites and cream of tartar of Ingredients B at medium speed until the egg whites are bubbly. Add sugar and whip at high speed until stiff peaks form (as shown in photo).
- Fold 1/3 of whipped egg whites into mixture of Step 1. Then, pour this mixture to the remaining egg whites in the other mixing bowl. Fold lightly to combine both mixtures.
- Pour this mixture into a 21cm tube pan. Bake at a preheated over at 170 deg C for 40-45 minutes.
- As soon as the cake is removed from oven, quickly invert the pan and let it cool.
- When the cake is completely cool, run a knife around the sides of pan to remove the cake.
Notes:
- Mixing bowl for egg whites should be absolutely free from oil. Oil tends to deteriorate the whipping.
- Do not grease the cake pan. This is the general rule for all sponge and chiffon cakes.
- Remember to preheat the oven when you are still preparing the cake. Send into the oven as soon as it is ready or the egg whites will collapse.
- Only remove cake from oven when it is absolutely done. It is ready when the edges shrink from the sides of the pans.
- The pan inversion step is very important in the making of chiffon cake. The inversion causes the fragile cake structure to set while it is still warm.
