Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs
- 100 grams sugar
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Few drops orange food coloring
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 200 ml heavy cream
- 150 grams dark chocolate chips
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 10×15 inch baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy. Add vanilla and food coloring.
- In another bowl, whisk flour, salt, and baking powder. Gently fold into the egg mixture.
- Pour the batter into the tray and spread evenly. Bake for 10–12 minutes until sponge springs back.
- Flip the cake onto a kitchen towel, peel off parchment, and roll gently with the towel. Let it cool.
- Heat the cream in a saucepan until just simmering. Pour over chocolate chips, let sit, then stir until smooth. Cool until spreadable.
- Unroll the sponge, spread the filling evenly, re-roll without the towel, wrap in cling film, and chill for 1 hour.
- Slice and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- Roll the sponge while warm to avoid cracks.
- Chilling helps the roll hold its shape for clean slicing.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
