Coconut and Pandan Chiffon cake

After made the multiple layers of Jelly, I use the balance coconut milk to bake a chiffon cake. I don't like the smell from the artificial pandan paste use in my previous Pandan Chiffon, so this time I replaced it with few pandan leaves (screwpine leaves) to make the original green colour.

-When the chiffon is baking in the oven, the coconut smell from oven make my kitchen full of coconut aromatic! Smell so good!

We like this light and simple chiffon cake, even the colour is very pale in green, not nice looking, but it is healthy since no articial colouring or chemical substances(cream of Tartar) is added. Less burden to our body !!

Happy Baking !!

Lovely cake, Sonia, looks and colour not important as long as it tastes good. I do not like those colouring and artificial essence too.

Wow. First time I heard of coconut and pandan combined.So tempting. Too bad can't buy from outside.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Dear all, Thanks for all your lovely words.

Tracie, if you not use coconut milk, then it become not a Coconut and Pandan chiffon, hahaha..
Anyway, your choice! it can replace by any liquid.

Hi,

I've tried your recipe today, but my cake has following problems, hope you can advice?

1) when i turned the cake upside down, after 5mins, the cake auto came off from the mold. how come?

2) when i checked the cake, the middle part (near tube) is not fully cooked - stick to my finger when i touch it, although i've cooked it for about 40mins under 170Celsius (the top part turned to brown, but the bottom seems abit wet too). any idea?

3) the cake is not fluffy, which step should i take note?

hope to hear from you soon! many thanks in advance :)

regards,
Karen

Hi Sonia..tried baking this today. The taste was excellent! Coconut n pandan, so so yummy! Unfortunately my chiffon cake didn't fluff up but remains kemek so texture more like sponge cake. Do u hv any idea what went wrong?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Varn Teing, i can't really advise, as they are many aspect might caused a failed chiffon. The important thing is you have to beat a nice and steady meringue.
