Cotton cake

Cotton cake

Overview

I have been making chiffon cakes for a long time, but I have never been able to make them well. I was taught how to make this cotton cake in the baking group. Seeing that Jie Zhao was too tempting, I tried making it. Unexpectedly, the taste was much better than chiffon, and it was also softer than chiffon. It’s just that the knife I used is not good and I didn’t make neat cuts
