Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups cake flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 7 large eggs, separated
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Prepare an ungreased tube pan by setting it aside.
- Sift the cake flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt into a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine the vegetable oil, egg yolks, water, and vanilla extract. Whisk these wet ingredients together until fully integrated.
- Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and without lumps.
- In a different bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until they reach stiff peaks.
- Fold the beaten egg whites into the cake batter gently, ensuring not to deflate the mixture.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared tube pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven, invert the pan and allow the cake to cool upside down completely.
- For the whipped cream, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Beat until the mixture forms stiff peaks.
- Once the cake is cooled, apply the whipped cream on top evenly.
- Serve the chiffon cake with a dollop of whipped cream on each slice.
