Mooncake Chiffon (Chocolate Lotus)

An Internet friend invented a really special chiffon cake. It's called the mooncake de chiffon. Haha the 'de' is actually translated directly from Mandarin. It simply means mooncake chiffon in English.

Mooncake Chiffon (Chocolate Lotus)

Original recipe by Samantha Needs Vacation

INGREDIENTS 

30g Canola cooking oil 

80g water

150g Chocolate lotus filing (any cold skin mooncake filing can be replaceable) 

90g low protein flour 

5 egg yolks 

5 egg whites

35g sugar (you may adjust according to the sweetness of the filing used)

cream of tartar 

STEPS

1. Separate egg yolks and egg whites.
2. Double boil mooncake filing, oil and water until melted. Do not have to get it to boiling state. 
3. Remove from heat, add in flour and stir quickly to form a thick batter.
4. Add in egg yolks into the batter to form egg yolk batter.
5. Whisk egg whites until huge bubbles are formed. Add in cream of tartar. 
6. Add in sugar gradually and continue whisking egg whites until you achieve the stage between soft peak and near to stiff peak.
7. Combine both batter together using the chiffon method.
8. [using regular baking pan] Bake at 140 degree Celsius for 15 minutes at low rack using the lower fire only. Then, switch to 150 degree Celsius for 50 minutes at low rack using both top and bottom fire. 
9. Overturn cake on a cooling rack once cool. 

材料:
30g 粟米油
80g 清水
150g 金翡翠月饼馅（任何冰皮月饼馅）
90g 低粉（过筛）
5粒 蛋黄

5粒 蛋白
35g 细砂糖（视月饼馅甜度，自行增减）
5ml 柠檬汁（或塔塔粉 1g）

做法:
1、蛋黄和蛋白分开。
2、粟米油、清水和月饼馅混合，隔水搅拌煮热，不需要滚，有点烫手（65度），离火，筛入低粉，快速拌匀，成为烫面团。
3、蛋黄打发至浓稠（看不到流动性的蛋黄液），将打发的蛋黄，分两次倒入烫面团，搅拌均匀成为蛋黄糊。
4、蛋白打至粗泡加入半份细砂糖和柠檬汁或塔塔粉，继续打至蛋白呈现细腻才加入剩余白糖，继续打至湿性接近硬性发泡。（提起打蛋器，蛋白呈现小弯钩）
5、取1/3蛋白霜与蛋黄糊切拌均匀，轻轻将全部蛋黄糊倒入剩余的蛋白霜里，从底向上翻拌均匀成为戚风面糊。
6、將戚风面糊慢慢倒入中空戚風模內，并在桌面上震几下消除多余气泡，入预热好的烤箱烘焙150度50分钟或至熟。
7、蛋糕取出后立即倒扣晾凉，完全凉透后可用小刀铺助或徒手直接脱模。

阿sam很罗嗦：
1、月饼馅混合液体后，有点难搅拌，使其软化要有点耐心哦。
2、烘烤时间一定要够，否则戚风很容易回缩。
3、鸡蛋方面，姑娘用连壳称重60克的冷藏鸡蛋。
4、烫面戚风建议冰箱冷藏。
5、时间和温度仅供参考，姑娘的微波炉烤箱用140度烘烤60分钟。
6、每个人的烤箱温度都有偏差，最终要以牙签插入蛋糕内部不会带出湿粘的面糊为成熟的标准。

Really soft and moist cake.
