I am so in the mood to eat pandan chiffon cakes lately and have been submitting my chiffon cake ‘orders’ to my mil, who happily obliged. Lucky me that I have someone staying with me who loves to bake and does not mind getting into a baking and cooking frenzy several times a week. Ever since the pandan chiffon cake crave hit me 3 weeks ago, she had baked 5 chiffon cakes (4 pandan-coconut milk flavor and 1 orange flavor). And I have been stuffing myself fat with chiffon cakes! It feels so good to indulge in one’s comfort food. Eating and retail therapy are indeed the top 2 stress-busters for me!
Last week, my mil baked 2 pandan chiffon cake in a day and I ate almost 1 whole cake, all by myself! Chiffon cakes are also my kids’ favorite cake and I think homemade ones are pretty nutritious as they are made with fresh eggs, fresh coconut milk and fresh pandan juice (aka screwpine leaves). The ones that my mil baked are also low in sugar. But I think I will have to stave off cakes for the time being as my weight jumped up by a pound with all the sinful gorging on pandan chiffon cakes for the past 3 weeks! And ya know what? The durian season is here again and this spells trouble for me!! I seem to have a weakness for durians too!
Your MIL chiffon cake is very very fluffy and nice. You are blessed. By the way, eversince I started baking, my weight has increased too. This is a negative outcome from my baking and cooking.
