Avocado Chiffon Cake

My heart always have a chiffon in me. :) I love fluffy moist soft texture cake. Yup out of the craziness for avocado, also I still have some avocado paste left after I bake the Avocado Milk Pound Cake. I decide to try out something I have yet to see others baking this - Avocado Chiffon Cake . Checking through chiffon cake recipe I gather some idea and bake this Avocado Chiffon Cake.

Recipe adapted and modified from Wen's Delight

The cake has a light yellowish green color. It taste light. As avocado does not has a strong taste so is a moist light avocado lemon chiffon cake taste. Not sure will you like it or not. However am happy for the result and I have done it. Well you wont know until you try it so I knew how is an avocado chiffon cake taste like :)
