Coffee chiffon cake details
INGREDIENTS:A:
3 egg yolks
60g castor sugar
120g high ratio/cake/superfine flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
70g vegetable oil
1 tsp coffee emulco
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp instant coffee powder dissolved in 100g milk
B:
3 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
60g castor sugar
Decoration:
300g non-dairy whipping cream
1 tbsp instant coffee powder
1½ tbsp of water
2 tsp coffee emulco
Whole walnuts, maraschino cherries, cocoa powder etc
METHOD:
- Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a mixing bowl. Add all the remaining Ingredients in A. Use a hand whisk to mix just until a consistent and smooth mixture is obtained.
- In another mixing bowl, whip egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Add sugar in B and whip at high speed until stiff peaks form (as shown in picture).
- 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 batter of Step 4 into a 8 inch round cake 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.
Decoration:
- Dissolve instant coffee powder in water and chill.
- Add coffee solution in (1) and coffee emulco into whipping cream. Whip till stiff.
- Slice coffee chiffon cake into 3 layers.
- Place one layer on a cake board and cover with a layer of whipped cream. Place the second cake layer on the whipped cream.
- Cover second layer of cake with whipped cream and lay the third layer of cake over it. Trim the sides of the cake if necessary.
- Spread whipped cream on top and sides of cake. Smooth the cream with spatula.
- Decorate cake as you wish.
- 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 a little from the sides of the pan.
- 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.
- For those of you who like coffee very much, this is the cake you do not want to miss.
- Just decorate the cake with whatever ingredients that are available in your pantry. Your family or friends will love this cake. Good luck!
