It's a weekend bakeout ~ Part II ~


So here's part II of my bakeout weekend! 
Found a recipe and tried Durian Chiffon this time!! 

My love for durian....  Is just crazy!!! 
I can eat it every week which I have, and still not get sick of it!! But body couldn't take it and fell lil sick stuffing myself with all the creamy and sweet durian. Need more liang cha pleaseeeeee.
And for info sake, the amount of calories in a durian is NO JOKE! An average of 1350cals in a freaking 1kg durian!!!!! About 54cals/seed you eat. Of WTF!!!
Why is it that food that always tastes good SO HIGH in calories?!?  Come on..........
But on the other hand, I do have to tell you that there's quite a high amount of nutrients in durians.
It helps to increase muscle strength and blood pressure, bowel movement and skin health.
LOL!! Worth indulging in??
Oh well, everything must be taken in moderation right? Too much of something is always bad.



FYI, my fav durian place is still 717 at Koran.
Price is good, people are friendly and place is clean!!

OK let's not divert to a durian topic and get bake to the Durian Chiffon!

Alright,  chiffon cakes are known for their sensitivity hence I paid a lot of attention to detail when doing this cake. Yet, it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to be.  Not soft enough as a chiffon should be, so I'm quite upset.
So here's the recipe for you guys to try!

Durian Chiffon
Yields 5 minis or 8" chiffon cake.
Mine could yield

Tips:
* turn the chiffon cake upside to cool at a higher ground for about 30-60mins.
* you can use a spatula to take it out or actually just use your fingers to press the side and top. Need not be scared of the chiffon!

Happy baking!

YW
