Mean Chef’s Almond Crunch & Chocolate Confetti Chiffon Cake, This recipe was originally posted by Mean Chef, a terrific pastry chef and talented cook I first tried this recipe when, looking for a challenge, I asked for unusual recipes using chocolate chips This was Mean’s recommendation, and indeed it is beautiful I made it for my FIL’s birthday a few years ago, and everyone loved it Source: Fine Cooking Magazine , Very yummy cake and much lighter than most I like the splashes of chocolate throughout and that it has a glaze rather than heavy frosting I could do without so many almonds but I’m weird that way Overall this is good stuff
