- Preparation: 15 min
- Cooking: 9 min
- Makes: 1 serving (106 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 25 g Eggs, whole, raw
- 20 g Sugar
- 15 g Flour, all-purpose
- 5 g Cocoa powder
- 0.5 g Baking powder
- 35 g Cream, heavy
- 5 g Sugar, powdered
Method
- Makes 1 slice from a chocolate Swiss roll that cuts into about 8; multiply all quantities by 8 for the whole roll.
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C (425 °F) and line a shallow baking tray, about 23x33 cm, with parchment.
- Whisk the egg and sugar together for 5 minutes until pale, thick and doubled in volume.
- Sift in the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder and fold in gently. Spread evenly in the tray and bake for 8-10 minutes until springy and firm to the touch.
- Turn the sponge out onto a sheet of parchment dusted with a little of the powdered sugar. Peel off the lining paper and, while still warm, roll the sponge up from a short end with the fresh parchment inside; leave to cool rolled up.
- Whip the cream with the remaining powdered sugar to soft peaks.
- Unroll the cooled sponge, spread with the whipped cream, then roll back up firmly without the paper. Dust with a little more powdered sugar and slice to serve.
