Chocolate Chiffon Cake

My best friend having her birthday and I wish to make something more personal for her and I choose to bake a cake.

Last time I made the steamed cake, now I wish to make a light and fluffy one, as Josh like to eat that one too then I choose a Chiffon cake.
Search the recipe online, at the end I select the one provided on Storyofbing blog and do some adjustment.

Ingredients:
A:
5 extra white egg
1/2 cup caster sugar

B:
5 extra egg yolk
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
pinch of sea salt (about 1/8 teaspoon)
2 tablespoons water

C:
3/4 cup cake flour
1/4 cup Cocoa Powder

Direction:
1. Combine B, and Sieve the C gradually inside the B until well combine.
2. Used High speed, Whisk A till smooth and soft peak.
3. Fold the Combine B&C into the A, gradually (for not losing too much air).
4. Pour into the Cake tin.
5. Bake it for around 40 minutes on 160-170 C.

Topping:
Melt the chocolate
Pour some milk to make it more liquid
Fruit (Strawberry shall be great choice, but I have none, so I used whatever I have - the Black Grape)

Result:
Josh asked for more, Daddy love it. My friend like it too. Their opinion might bias toward my cake, but anyway, I love to see their expression while eat the cake.






I need to learn how to execute the final appearance ^^. See, I never really plan to bake, I will do it if I have a good mood. Why? when I bake and turn out good, that make me smile even better, but If it wasn't as I expected, at least I won't felt too sad.

P.S. For Josh, I just pour a bit chocolate on the top, but actually he quite satisfied with the cake ^^.
