Scorching Butter Chiffon

It's been a rather busy weeks for me, finally get the time to post something that's been sitting behind for more than two weeks. Another great chiffon cake by 福田淳子. The simple taste of this cake is similar to a vanilla chiffon but this one with a hint of nutty and burnt taste in it as the butter used in the recipe was being boiled till it turned brown, therefore the tint of burnt taste is in this cake. As usual, all her recipes churn out great chiffon cakes!
