Equipment

10x15-inch jelly roll pan
Parchment paper
Electric mixer or stand mixer
Whisk
Spatula
Clean kitchen towel

Ingredients

4 large eggs room temperature
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup cocoa powder
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
powdered sugar for dusting
1 cup heavy cream
¼ cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
50 g dark melted chocolate

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whip the eggs and sugar together on high speed for about 5 minutes until pale yellow and thick.
Add the vanilla extract to the egg mixture and mix briefly.
Sift cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt into the egg mixture and gently fold using a spatula.
Spread the batter evenly onto the prepared pan and bake for 12-15 minutes until springy.
Dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar, invert the warm cake onto it, peel off the parchment, and roll it up gently. Let it cool completely.
Unroll the cooled cake, spread the whipped cream filling evenly, and re-roll tightly.
Place the roll in the fridge for at least an hour to set, then garnish before serving.

Notes

Make sure your eggs are at room temperature for better whipping.
Use powdered sugar when rolling the warm cake to prevent sticking.
For a lovely presentation, dust with cocoa powder or drizzle with melted white chocolate. Enjoy your baking adventure; this dessert is sure to impress!
