Cheese Chiffon Cake

Attempt this recipe from the book 戚风蛋糕零失败 couple of weeks back, the side of the cake shrunk while cooling down so I thought fault was at the oil I used, so last week tried again with japanese salad oil as its lighter compare to other type of oil besides butter, but the side of the cake still shrunk and the cake looks like mushroom...

The cake taste more like japanese cheese cake than chiffon cake as its more wet and dense..
