Whip up smiles! Create magic in the kitchen with Chiffon Cake, a delightful treat for the whole family. Easy, breezy, and oh-so-yummy! 🍰✨

This recipe is inspired by John Kanell from the Preppy Kitchen, as I find his in-depth explanations for fledgling bakers (like me!) to be immensely helpful. Please be sure to check out all his amazing desserts and more!

If you plan on baking this, or any cake, I highly encourage you to get a Kitchen Digital Scale to weigh your dry ingredients.  Your cakes will consistently come out better for it, plus it saves time.  Who can argue with that?

For this recipe, I used my Deluxe Stand Mixer and our NEW Tube Cake Pan and Wood Cake Stand:

Deluxe Stand Mixer

Magic in the Mixing

Whether you’re baking a batch of cookies or making a meal for your entire family, the Deluxe Stand Mixer is there for you. It has no-guess presets that automatically reach the ideal time and speed, so you’ll never under- or over-mix your batter again! You can use the Custom setting to set a specific time and choose from 8 manual speeds to prepare recipes you already know and love.

Plus, the Deluxe Stand Mixer goes beyond baking! Use the scraping beater to shred chicken and mash potatoes, the whisk to whip yogurt and whipped cream, and the dough hook to knead pizza dough. And if you’re not sure which accessory to use, the LCD display clearly shows you the recommended accessory for your chosen preset along with the time and mixing speed, so you can mix anything from meatloaf to sweet dough like a pro.

Tube Cake Pan:

Bake Your Best Angel Food Cake

Add a little sweetness to your day with the Tube Cake Pan. Use this 10″ (25-cm) pan to bake light and airy angel food cakes, chiffon cakes, or pound cakes with ease. Made of heavy-duty steel, this pan has an integrated center tube and a removable bottom to ensure even heat distribution and uniform rising—and it will help keep your cakes from collapsing.

When it’s time to remove your cake from the oven, immediately flip the pan over so onto the feet. The elevation will help it cool faster, so you can enjoy your cake sooner. The interior nonstick coating and included release tool make it easy to remove your cake from the pan.

About Blue Enamel Nonstick Bakeware

From donut holes and muffins to fun custom cakes, you’ll find the perfect nonstick pans to make any tasty treat. Each pan is made with steel and has Pampered Chef’s exclusive high-quality nonstick coating, so you’ll get an even bake, easy release, and effortless cleanup every time. Plus, the blue exterior enamel coating gives the pans a lovely celebratory design that looks great in any kitchen.

Wood Cake Stand

Impress Guests With This Wooden Cake Stand

Create a delicious display at home by placing a tiered cake, or an assortment of pastries or appetizers on the Wood Cake Stand. Made from natural acacia wood, this 12″ (30-cm) stand is the perfect size for all kinds of sweet and savory treats.!

You can use it as a traditional cake stand or flip it over for a tiered cupcake display or setup for veggies and dip, or use the large and small platters separately as charcuterie boards.

Let’s jump right in!

Ingredients

  • 7 large eggs whites room temperature
  • 7 large egg yolks room temperature
  • 1¾ cups cake flour
  • 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup cold water
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar

Instructions

Place one of your oven racks to the lowest level, then preheat the oven to 325°F/165⁰C.

Separate your egg yolks and egg whites; allow them to sit for 30 minutes, or until they reach room temperature.

Weigh and sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.  This is important – don’t skip!

In another bowl, whisk together egg yolks, water, oil, and vanilla until pale and frothy, about 30 seconds. Pour egg yolk mixture into the flour mixture, whisking until fully incorporated.

In the bowl* of the Deluxe Stand Mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on Level 6 speed until stiff peaks form, about 5-6 minutes. *Please make sure your bowl is dry, so that the egg whites can make peaks.

Fold one-fourth of the egg whites into the flour mixture, until just combined. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites. Spoon batter into an ungreased Tube Cake Pan. Run the releasing tool gently through the batter to release any larger air pockets. Bake on the lowest rack for 55 minutes or until the Cake Tester & Releaser (or a wooden pick) inserted in the center comes out clean.

Immediately invert the pan onto a cooling rack and let the cake cool completely in the pan. When cooled, gently the releasing tool around the edges of the pan to release the cake. Place the cake on a cake stand and garnish with confectioners’ sugar, if desired.

Sous Vide Crème Brûlée (Video)

Crème Brûlée is an exquisite dessert, marrying a velvety custard with a crisp caramelized sugar crust.

With the Sous Vide method, making this luxurious treat has never been easier!

Is Sous Vide Crème Brûlée a thing?

According to Anova Culinary, it most certainly is!

“Creme brûlée is the perfect dessert for sous vide cooking. The temperature is always precise and there is no wrangling a full water bath in and out of the oven. You simply CANNOT overcook it! You can make as many portions as you can fit screw-top mason jars in your cooking vessel with water still circulating around them. You can make it five days in advance and literally stack your jars in the fridge, not having to worry about entire trays of ramekins being perfectly covered and taking up entire shelves.”

Here’s a quick Sous Vide refresher:

Sous Vide is a method of cooking foods in a water bath at a precisely controlled (lower) temperature for an extended period time. The results speak for themselves. You won’t ever worry about overcooking an expensive cut of meat, it will come out perfectly tender and juicy, based on the temperature YOU select, every single time. So far, I notice also that using the sous vide method leaves me time to do other things, as it’s a matter of placing your food in a reusable or zip top bag and into    the water, pressing START and it does its thing.

“Creme brûlée is the perfect dessert for sous vide cooking. The temperature is always precise and there is no wrangling a full water bath in and out of the oven. You simply CANNOT overcook it!

You can make it five days in advance and literally stack your jars in the fridge, not having to worry about entire trays of ramekins being perfectly covered and taking up entire shelves.”

Believe me, this is the EASIEST way I’ve ever made this recipe, and once you try it, you won’t go back to the traditional method.

For this recipe, I used my Deluxe Multi Cooker:

Deluxe Multi Cooker

Pressure Cooker, Sous Vide Cooker, Slow Cooker, Yogurt Maker, and Sterilizer

Our pressure cooker offers so many ways to get a delicious meal on the table with minimal effort and perfect results, every time. In addition to quick cooking—fast, flavorful meals cooked up to 70% faster than other methods even from frozen—and no-fuss slow cooking so it does it thing while you’re doing yours, you can sous vide, the secret to restaurant-quality steaks, fish, and more. With sous vide, you pick the temperature, and it cooks to the exact doneness you love, every time! No more undercooked centers and overcooked outsides. After your food reaches its perfect doneness, it can stay put for up to two hours without overcooking, giving you lots of wiggle room for serving. Plus, there is a yogurt function so you can make homemade yogurt with just two ingredients and less than 5 minutes of hands-on time, and you can even sterilize bottles and utensils. All of this without ever turning on the oven!

Confident Cooking

With 16 preprogrammed settings at your fingertips, you can cook everything from meat, rice, and beans to desserts minus the guesswork. Some added features include an indicator that shows at-a-glance progress of preheating, cooking, and warming so you always know the status of what you’re making and two lid rest slots on the back so you can securely rest the lid on the Deluxe Multi Cooker instead of your counter. The steam release button is safely positioned to keep your hands away from any steam and the outside of the unit stays cool even while in use.

Product Details

6-qt. (5.6-L) capacity; 13″ x 15″ x 13″ (33 cm x 38 cm x 33 cm)

Includes a stainless-steel inner pot, wire rack, and silicone seal which are all dishwasher-safe, and a cooking guide with recipes and cooking charts.

These crispy cookies are richly flavored with anise, making them the best biscotti to dunk in your cup of coffee! I’ve made this recipe for years, and give them as gifts, along my other cookies.  I love how easy this recipe is, and I know that you will enjoy it. 

To chop the almonds, I used my Food Chopper, and to bake them perfectly, I used my Rectangle Stone:

Food Chopper

One of our most popular kitchen tools, the Food Chopper makes quick work of chopping veggies, cooked meat, and nuts in seconds. It’s the solution to tear-free onion chopping! It’s equipped with a unique stainless-steel blade that rotates with each press of the plunger for consistent results. The more you press the plunger, the finer the chop. 

Rectangle Stone

Stone Cookie Sheet

Get ready for the best cookies—soft in the center, crispy but never burned on the bottom! This stone also turns out the best pizza and flatbreads, appetizers, biscuits and scones, roasted vegetables, garlic bread, brunch braids, and so much more. Because the unglazed cooking surface draws moisture away, everything cooks consistently and turns out light and crispy.

Natural Clay Cookware

Our unglazed stoneware is made with our new StoneFusion material making it our strongest and most durable stoneware yet. You can pre-heat, broil, and even put it in the dishwasher. Each piece features a ribbon pattern, so you can easily distinguish from your original unglazed stones. Like all our stones, you can use it to make your favorite baked goods, frozen foods, or reheated leftovers that are just as good or better than day one. And it only gets better with age. A nonstick seasoning will develop as you use it—the darker it looks, the better it cooks!

Get ready for the best cookies—soft in the center, crispy but never burned on the bottom! This stone also turns out the best pizza and flatbreads, appetizers, biscuits and scones, roasted vegetables, garlic bread, brunch braids, and so much more. Because the unglazed cooking surface draws moisture away, everything cooks consistently and turns out light and crispy.

Natural Clay Cookware

Our unglazed stoneware is made with our new StoneFusion material making it our strongest and most durable stoneware yet. You can pre-heat, broil, and even put it in the dishwasher. Each piece features a ribbon pattern, so you can easily distinguish it from your original unglazed stones. Like all our stones, you can use it to make your favorite baked goods, frozen foods, or reheated leftovers that are just as good or better than day one. And it only gets better with age. A nonstick seasoning will develop as you use it—the darker it looks, the better it cooks!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 3-ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

In Deluxe Stand Mixer,  combine butter and cream cheese, until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Slowly add flour to the mixture, mixing well after each addition.

Roll out dough to ⅛ inch thickness. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or glass to cut dough into 24 circles; alternatively, you can slice into 2-inch squares if you don’t have a cutter.

Place ¼ teaspoon of jam onto each circle. Pinch opposite sides together (see video) to connect.

Place 2-inches apart on Rectangle Stone, and bake for 15 minutes, just until edges are beginning to brown.

Remove from oven, and place on rack until completely cool. 

Sprinkle with powdered sugar prior to serving.

These Danish Oatmeal are melt-in-your-mouth buttery! They make a delicious addition to your holiday cookie platter, or anytime. I found this recipe many years ago on Allrecipes, and it’s a family favorite.

To make these cookies, I used my Deluxe Stand Mixer, Small Scoop and Rectangle Stone:

Deluxe Stand MixerMagic in the Mixing

Whether you’re baking a batch of cookies or making a meal for your entire family, the Deluxe Stand Mixer is there for you. It has no-guess presets that automatically reach the ideal time and speed, so you’ll never under- or over-mix your batter again! You can use the Custom setting to set a specific time and choose from 8 manual speeds to prepare recipes you already know and love.

Plus, the Deluxe Stand Mixer goes beyond baking! Use the scraping beater to shred chicken and mash potatoes, the whisk to whip yogurt and whipped cream, and the dough hook to knead pizza dough. And if you’re not sure which accessory to use, the LCD display clearly shows you the recommended accessory for your chosen preset along with the time and mixing speed, so you can mix anything from meatloaf to sweet dough like a pro.

Small Scoop

Get the scoop! This heavy-duty stainless-steel scoop is great for evenly portioning batters, doughs, fillings, and salads. Squeeze-action handles allow for convenient one-handed use. Approximately 1 tbsp. Dishwasher-safe.
