Hokkaido Chiffon

I had gotten the recipe from: http://yummykoh.blogspot.com/2012/05/hokkaido-chiffon-cupcakes.html with a little modification. Since no one likes the cream, we do without it... :D

Ingredients:

4 Yolks
70g Sugar (reduced to 65g)
1 tsp of Vanilla Essence
80ml Fresh Milk
60ml Corn oil (I used Olive oil)
135g Cake Flour
4g Baking powder
6 Whites
50g sugar (reduced to 40g)

Steps:

1. Preheat oven at 100 degree celcius.
2. Arrange paper liners on baking tray
3. Hand whisk yolks with sugar until pale in colour.
4. Add drops of vanilla essence
5. Add in Milk, follow by oil, manually whisk till combined.
6. Sieve in Cake flour and baking powder (this I had presieved and stir well). Stir till well-mixed.
7. Whisk whites till foamy, add sugar. Whisk till medium peak.
8. Take 1/3 whites fold in with yolk mixture.
9. follow by folding in the rest of white
10. scope batter into pre-arranged paper cups about 80% filled.

Baking time: 20-25 minutes, bake at 180 degree celcius for the first 15mins and reduced to 150 degrees for another 5mins and then reduce to 100 degree celcius for another 5mins. Leave the cakes in the oven for about 2-3mins before removing to cool it down (this is my modification that I notice the cakes do not shrink).

Note from the original blog: This cake will shrink after cooled. However, do not overfilled up the liners as batter will over flow. Since I uses paper cups instead of any cupcake liners or the hokkaido chiffon liners, that is the reason I adjusted the temperature that way to ensure the whole cake cooks properly and it renders good result, no shrinking.. :D
