Ingredients (Serves 8-10):
For the Chocolate Sponge Cake:
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp milk
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
For the Caramel Cream Filling:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
For the Chocolate Ganache Topping (Optional):
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
Tips for Success:
- Roll the cake while warm to prevent cracking.
- Chill the filling before spreading for better consistency.
- Use parchment paper to make rolling the cake easier.
How to Make Chocolate Caramel Cream Roll:
1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper.
2. Make the Chocolate Sponge Cake:
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with an electric mixer on high speed until pale and thick, about 5 minutes.
- Gently fold in the vanilla extract, vegetable oil, and milk.
- Gradually sift the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, folding gently to avoid deflating the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the top springs back when lightly touched.
3. Roll the Cake:
- Dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Immediately invert the warm cake onto the towel and peel off the parchment paper.
- Starting from one short end, roll the cake (with the towel) into a tight log. Let it cool completely.
4. Prepare the Caramel Cream Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold in the caramel sauce until well combined.
5. Assemble the Roll:
- Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Spread the caramel cream filling evenly over the cake, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides.
- Reroll the cake (without the towel) and place it seam-side down on a serving plate.
6. Prepare the Chocolate Ganache Topping (Optional):
- Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until steaming, then pour it over the chocolate chips in a bowl.
- Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth.
- Spread the ganache over the top of the rolled cake and let it set.
7. Chill and Serve:
- Refrigerate the roll for at least 1 hour before slicing. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with caramel sauce for garnish.
