PINEAPPLE CHIFFON CAKE RECIPE

0 comments

Here's the recipe of the chiffon cake I and my sister made for my maternal grandma a day before her birthday, May 13.

Originally the recipe is for Orange Chiffon Cake but we used pineapple juice instead of orange cause we found it more appetizing.

Ingredients:
3 cups cake flour
1. tbsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. Iodized salt
1 cup white sugar
10 egg yolks
3/4 cup Pineapple Juice
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp. vanilla

Meringue:
10 egg whites
1/4 tsp. Cream of tartar
1 cup white sugar

Procedure:

1. Sift dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl(except 1 cup sugar and cream of tartar for meringue).


2. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add in proper addition egg yolk, juice, oil and vanilla. Mix with a wooden spoon for 300 strokes.


3. Combine egg white and cream of tartar in a large bowl free from grease. Beat until foamy.




4. Add sugar gradually while beating until stiff but not dry peaks are formed.


5. Pour the batter into the streams over the entire surface of the meringue. Fold gently while turning the bowl around for sufficient blending.


6. Pour into an ungreased pan lined with wax paper.

7. Bake in preheated 350 F oven for 45-60 minutes until done or until tester inserted in the center comes out clean or shrinks slightly from the sides of pan.
8. Invert immediately on the rack, use a spatula to loosen the cake then cool it completely.

Heres the final product. I failed to take a nicer picture. Lol.




Need help?..Here's how to
Fold and how to Separate egg yolk from egg white.

Anyway we weren't able to create a perfect chiffon cake coz we are newbie bakers.. ^.^ . But promise we created a delicious one..

QUICK COCOA CAKE RECIPE

0 comments

Having food technologist sisters, I gained interest on baking and cooking. On the 3rd day of March 2010, I with the help of a friend (Xieh) and my younger brother(Kenneth) baked a Quick Cocoa Cake for my Mother's birthday(Mar 4).

I'll show you hasty steps on the creation of our chocolatey goodness. Yum!

Basic things needed are wax paper, baking pan, sifter, measuring cup, measuring spoon, mixing bowl, wooden spoon, and mixer or beater.

6 tbsp. Cocoa
2 c. Flour
1 1/2 c. Sugar
1 tsp. Baking Soda
2 eggs
2/3 c. oil
1 c. Cold water/evaporated milk


1. Preheat oven to 180ºC or 338ºF
2. Sift the 1st four ingredients into a mixing bowl.
3. Add the rest and stir after all ingredients are in.

4. Beat well.

5. Transfer to a large pan or two layers and bake in a moderate oven.


Drum roll. . . .

Here are our outputs. We created two out of same recipe.



So Quick right? Now its time to create yours..

The bakers.. It seems like we've messed up with our cake flour that we spread it all over our face. Look how whitish they are. Lol.whew!
