Description
A decadent chocolate cake roll swirled with creamy peanut butter filling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup softened butter
- 2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a 15×10 inch jelly roll pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale.
- Stir in 1/4 cup milk and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, lay a clean dishtowel on a flat surface and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
- Immediately after removing the cake from the oven, invert it onto the prepared dishtowel.
- Carefully peel off the parchment paper. Roll the cake up in the dishtowel from the short end. Let cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, beat together peanut butter, powdered sugar, softened butter, and 2 tablespoons milk until smooth and creamy.
- Unroll the cooled cake. Spread the peanut butter filling evenly over the cake.
- Carefully reroll the cake. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Ensure cake is completely cool before unrolling to prevent cracking.
- Using a dishtowel helps prevent the cake from sticking when rolling.
- Refrigerating the cake roll helps the filling set and makes slicing easier.
