Baking Chiffon Cake With Mommy (Recipe Included)

Baking a cake with your children is one of the sweetest thing that mothers could do with their little ones. So after Jordan boy and Jasmine girl has made breakfast for their mommy, they then learned how to make chiffon cake together from their mother. This was the very first time both our little children had attempted to make a cake with a lot of involvement.

Ingredients for Chiffon Cake

Firstly in order to help bake a chiffon cake, both of them helped their mother to crack some eggs and separated the egg yolks from the egg white. This step was not easy as you have to ensure that the eggs are nicely cracked open and the egg yolk and egg white would not be mixed together. So Jordan boy and Jasmine girl had to be really careful when they get cracking-6 eggs to be precise.

 Jasmine girl was preparing the baking paper

This is how you crack your eggs!

Prior to the egg cracking session, my wifey had already heated 75 ml of vegetable oil. The oil was heated until tiny bubbles started to emerge. Then we will prepare Ingredient A whereby the 6 egg yolks will be mixed together with the heated vegetable oil, 60 ml of full cream fresh milk, 1 cup of flour and half teaspoon of vanilla essence. Make sure that the flour is sieved first being added to the ingredients. All 5 of the ingredients will be beaten until it is evenly mixed.  Now we are going to deal with our egg white.

 Add the heated vegetable oil

Add the egg yolks 

Add your fresh milk 

Time to sieve your flour 

Obviously he had a fun time with the flour 

 Measuring the vanilla essence

Add the vanilla essence

Next we will prepare Ingredient B which will involve egg white and sugar. The egg white from the 6 eggs will be added into the 80 grams of sugar. Both this ingredients will be beaten using a mixer until the sugar is fully dissolved. By now your mixture of sugar and egg white should be smooth and firm (stiff). This preparation will take more or less 5 minutes to complete. Yep~Jordan and Jasmine were getting closer to making their very first chiffon cake.

 It is time to mix things (ingredients) up!

 Mixing the sugar and egg white for about 5 minutes

Until the sugar is truly dissolved and the texture of mixture is smooth 

Now add all the ingredients (A & B) together 

Make sure to stir all the ingredients evenly

Once this is done, add Ingredient A and B together and stir them slowly until it is evenly mixed. Then pour all the ingredients into a baking pan to bake your chiffon cake. But before that make sure you preheat your oven at 160℃ for 5 minutes. After that prepare and put a tray into the oven. Add boiling water into the tray and then place the baking pan with all your mixture in it. Then steam-bake your chiffon cake for 1 hour at 150℃. There you have it folks, simple steps to make your very own chiffon cake.
