Rose Chiffon Cake
Share recipe
Description
I love trying different flavors in baked goods and when I found rose water in a local grocery store, I absolutely had to try it. Some of the recipes I found for rose-flavored cakes produced flavors that were too floral for me, so I wrote my own recipe. The resulting cake is tender and tasty with just a hint of rose fragrance. I hope you enjoy this cake as much as I do.
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup almond meal
- 2 tablespoons almond meal
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon rose water
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 13 tablespoons white sugar, divided
- 3 eggs, separated
- ½ cup butter, softened
Directions
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 10 rose-shaped cake molds with cooking spray.
- 2. Sift flour, 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons almond meal, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
- 3. Mix milk, rose water, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl.
- 4. Combine 6 tablespoons sugar, egg yolks, and butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with milk mixture, beating batter briefly after each addition.
- 5. Beat egg whites in a separate bowl, with clean beaters, until foamy. Add remaining 7 tablespoons sugar gradually, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold into the batter.
- 6. Spoon batter into the prepared molds.
- 7. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
