How to prepare Oreo Chiffon Cake

Ingredients:

• 🥄 1 cup (125g) cake flour (or all-purpose flour sifted 2–3 times)
• 🥚 6 large eggs, separated
• 🍬 1/2 cup (100g) sugar (for egg whites)
• 🍬 1/4 cup (50g) sugar (for egg yolks)
• 🛢️ 1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil
• 🥛 1/2 cup (120ml) milk
• 🌼 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 🍞 1 tsp baking powder
• 🧂 1/4 tsp salt
• 🍪 10 Oreo cookies, crushed (reserve a little for topping)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and prepare a chiffon cake pan by not greasing it. This helps the cake to rise better!
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar (1/4 cup), vegetable oil, milk, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt until combined.
3. Sift in the flour and mix until smooth.
4. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites. Once they become frothy, gradually add the sugar (1/2 cup) and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
5. Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture in three additions. Be careful not to deflate the batter!
6. Add the crushed Oreos and fold them in gently.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Remove from the oven and let it cool upside down in the pan to maintain its fluffy texture.
10. Once cooled, remove from the pan, and top with reserved crushed Oreos if desired.
