Milo Chiffon Cake

I bought 4 mini Chiffon cake tin on Thur & today from Daiso, that was the motivation behind me for the chiffon bake today. So far I only get 1 successful chiffon bake. What about today ... hmmm mix mix lor. I bake 4 mini chiffon cake but only 3 of them turn out quite well, the other not so lor ... why ????

Cos i went to wrap the cake tin with a alumimum foil to prevent leakage. (hahah ... me really 画蛇添足) By doing that my cake base was not probably bake only the top layer can be eaten.

Another mistake i made was, i forgot to add in the flour just before pouring the batter into the bake tin. (aiyo so forgetful... sign of age). Thanksfully the result of the cake still turn out well, though with some hipcup here and there.
I uses Rei, Alex Goh recipe and modifiy a little here and there and now becomes like this ...

Method
