Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • optional: chocolate ganache for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes until springy to touch.
  4. Once baked, cool briefly before rolling up in a powdered sugar-dusted kitchen towel.
  5. While cooling completely, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
  6. Unroll the cooled cake and spread whipped cream evenly over it. Roll tightly and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Nutrition

Keywords: To prevent cracks while rolling, ensure the cake is still warm when you roll it up. Experiment with different fillings such as fruit preserves or flavored whipped cream. Store leftovers tightly wrapped in plastic wrap in the fridge for up to four days.
