Earl Grey Chiffon Cake

Decided to make a chiffon cake for tomorrow's prayers for my grandfather's death anniversary. Wrapped rice dumplings for the 2nd time and also a Earl Grey Chiffon Cake instead of Pandan Chiffon Cake. At least it is a healthier choice than Pandan cos of the coconut milk used. Just hoped the ancestors enjoyed them tml.
Used the Earl Grey Chiffon Cake recipe from DeQueen, cos I tried her Earl Grey Hokkaido Cake and it was so yummy. So I decided to use my Dilmah's for 1 too..
