Banana Muffin, Pandan Chiffon and Lace Cookies

On the third last lesson with Richard for the Stage 1 class, he taught us Banana Muffin, Pandan Chiffon and Lace Cookies. As I am not a big fan of banana, I did not fancy it very much. But to be fair, it is indeed rather tasty just that I find it too sweet for me.When I see the title  "Lace Cookies" on the recipe book, I thought it is those buttery piped soft cookies with a lacy edge. But turn out that it is a hard cookie. Richard says this is a Japanese type of cookies and is very crunchy. The original recipe uses raisins but he says it is harded to cut the dough so he change it to chocolate chips, which I am more than happy. =)  This is definitely on my to-do list!I have always had this love-hate relationship with chiffon. I love to eat chiffon as it is light and spongy, but I always have problem with making it. Sigh! I had numerous failed attempts and only one successful one. Whenever I make chiffon, I will get nervous and pray hard that this one turns out well, but always disappointed. Wonder when can I achieve something like Richard's:
