pandan chiffon cake 班蘭 雪芳蛋糕

I love this cake since i was a girl,i hope i can bake it when i grow up.Yes i did, and you can do it too.It is different with sponge cake cause sponge cake has no oil at all while chiffon cake has a bit-----that's why it taste better than sponge cake.

Notes:
1. if you don't have cream of tartar,just add same amounts lemon juice or vinegar into egg whites.
2. the reason to add cream of tartar or vinegar or lemon juice into egg whites is to reduce the failure % to get a collapsing egg whites.
