Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 355 degrees F. Add the egg yolks, vegetable oil, water, vanilla, salt, and half of the sugar to a large mixing bowl. Whisk well to combine. (The remaining half of the sugar will be used for the egg whites.)
- Sift the cake flour and baking powder, into the egg yolk mixture in three batches. Fold after each time until well combined. Avoid over mixing.
- Add the egg whites and cream of tarter to a large mixing bowl. Beat on medium high speed while adding the remaining half of the sugar. Add the sugar in three batches until you've reached firm peaks. See Note 1.
- Add half the beaten egg whites to the egg yolk mixture. Fold gently to combine then add the remaining half. Fold gently again to avoid deflating the batter. The batter should be light, airy, and fluffy.
- Spray the inside of your ungreased, aluminum chiffon cake pan with water including the inner tube. This helps prevent the cake from sticking too much to the pan once baked. Pour the batter into the pan and fill up to 75% full otherwise you may risk overflow.
- Bake at 355 degrees F for 25 to 35 minutes. Your baking time will depend on how shallow or deep your pan is. See Note 2. Check after 25 minutes for doneness. It's ready when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is a golden brown color. If your pan is tall and deep, you may have to bake it longer.
- Remove from the oven and immediately flip the chiffon pan upside down to invert it. Cool it down as soon as possible to prevent it from sinking and deflating.Drape a cold, damp towel over it to cool it down as quickly as possible. Rinse the towel under cold water and wring it dry. Drape it over the pan again and repeat this process until the pan is no longer hot. See Note 3.
- Once the cake has cooled, flip over the pan and carefully run a knife along the sides of the pan to help remove it. Then run a knife along the bottom of the pan to remove it from the base.
- Invert the cake again so the flat side is facing up and dust on powdered sugar. Slice and serve.

Taken from the King Arthur flour website, I made the chocolate version for my boyfriend's birthday and everyone loved it. To make the chocolate version, replace 1/4 cup of flour with 1/3-1/2 cup of dutch process cocoa.

Steps:
- Separate the eggs carefully; even a small mount of yolk in the whites will prevent them from beating up properly.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually add 1/2 cup of sugar and contine beating until stiff and glossy. Set aside.
- Whisk together the remaining 1 cup sugar with the flour, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, beat the oil, milk, egg yolks and flavorings until pale yellow. Add the dry ingredients and beat until well blended, about 2 minutes at medium speed using a mixer, or longer by hand.
- Gently fold in the whipped egg whites, using a wire whip or cake blender. Be sure to scrap the bottom of the bowl so the batter is well-blended.
- Pour the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan or angel food pan, or two 9-inch round ungreased cake pans.
- Bake the cake in a preheated 325 degree oven. If it's in a tube or angel food pan, bake it for 50 minutes, then turn up the heat to 350 for the final 10 minutes, making a total baking time of 1 hour. If you're using two 9-inch pans, bake for about 40 minutes at 325, then 10 minutes more at 350.
- NOTE: Don't open the oven during the first 45 minutes of baking; the cake will rise high above the pan, then settle back almost even.
- It's done when a finger gently pressed in the middle doesn't leave a print, and you can hear a crackling sound if you listen carefully.
- Cool the cake upside down for 1/2 hour before removing it from the pan.
- If you've used a tube pan, set it atop a thin-necked bottle, theading the bottle neck through the hole in the tube.
- NOTE: Dip a serrated knife in hot water between each slive if you want smooth, even pieces.

Steps:
- Separate egg yolk and whites into separate bowls.
- Add 15g sugar, sifted flour, purple yam powder, oil and milk to the yolks. Mix well until there are no lumps. Do not overmix as you don't want the gluten to come out of the flour.
- Cover mixture and leave it to the side.
- Beat egg whites with sugar until stiff peak. Lower mixing speed to low to reduce the size of the air bubbles for the consistent final product.
- Add 1/3 of the egg whites to the yolk mixture. mix it until its well incorporated. Don't worry about folding here as you are trying to get the yolk to a similar texture as the whites.
- Add yolk mixture into the remaining 2/3 of egg whites. Fold in the mixture well and you want a thick consistency that runs down your spatula, like a ribbon consistency.
- Add batter to the aluminium cake tin (make sure its aluminium, do not use non-stick). Bake on lower shelf for 160 C for about 30 mins.
- Once its out of the oven, drop the cake from a height to get rid of the hot air, tip it upside down on a rack to cool down.
