Description
A delicious and decadent chocolate Swiss roll filled with whipped cream and topped with a rich chocolate ganache.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Filling:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Ganache Topping:
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare the cake: Beat eggs and sugar until fluffy, add oil and vanilla. Mix dry ingredients separately, then fold into the egg mixture. Bake for 10–12 minutes, and roll the cake in a towel to cool.
- Make the filling: Whip cream, sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Unroll the cake, spread the whipped cream, and roll it back up.
- Prepare the ganache: Heat cream, pour over chocolate chips, and stir until smooth. Pour over the rolled cake. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the cake is completely cool before unrolling to prevent cracking.
- Use high-quality chocolate for the ganache for the best flavor.
- Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
