thanks sweet-tooth,

This is becoz i use 4 eggs recipe for 7" pan. But not all 4 eggs recipe success in 7".

I try Mango Chiffon (4 eggs) today and fails! I guess 3 eggs would be better for heavy batter eg : mango, banana.

Hi, I have a question. I'm from Argentina and in the city where I live it's quite difficult to find coconut milk, I was wondering if it could be replace by condensed milk.
Well, I hope you'll be able to answer =] Thanx

Vir,

I think condensed milk might be too sweet, or u wanna substitute with evaporated milk instead?
