Moist Cocoa Roll Cake
cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
I wanted to eat a rich roll cake that would melt in your mouth. I experimented several times and finally came up with this recipe.
This sponge cake has cocoa powder inside, so it loses its airy texture very easily. So mix the batter as quick as possible after you add the cocoa powder. However, if you don't mix enough after you add the milk, the sponge will be too fluffy and crack when you roll it. Make sure to put two layers of parchment paper in the baking tray. Recipe by tai51

- 1
Preheat the oven to 200℃. Combine the cake flour and cocoa powder in a plastic bag and shake well.
- 2
Put the eggs in a bowl, add the granulated sugar, and mix lightly. Warm the mixture up in a double boiler until it feels warm to the touch.
- 3
Whip well with a hand mixer at high speed for about 5 minutes. Until the batter becomes thick and drips like ribbons, leaving tracks on the batter and some mixture stays in the wire beaters.
- 4
Reduce the speed and beat on the lowest setting for about 2 minutes.
- 5
Sift in the cake flour and cocoa powder together.
- 6
Mix the batter quickly until it's no longer floury. Mix as if to scatter the flour around so as not to create any lumps.
- 7
Warm the milk in a microwave until it starts to steam lightly. Pour the warmed milk into the batter and mix well by scooping it up from the bottom, about 50 times.
- 8
Lay two layers of parchment paper in a baking tray, and pour the batter all at once into it.
- 9
Smooth out the surface with a scraper, tap it on the counter to release air bubbles. Lower the oven temperature to 190℃ and bake for 10~12 minutes.
- 10
When it's baked, place it on a wooden board and cover with one sheet of parchment paper. Put a moist tea towel on top and let it cool down.
- 11
Add the sugar to the heavy cream and whip until the cream forms a thick ribbon when the whisk is lifted. Roll the cake with the whipped cream inside, wrap with cling film and chill in the fridge for more than 1 hour. And it's done.
- 12
Please take a look at the detailed instructions for rolling a cake,. If you find it hard to roll the cake as there is too much whipped cream on it, reduce the amount of cream to roll.

Fluffy Cocoa, Chocolate Roll Cake
I wanted to recreate a roll cake based on my mom's recipe book which was published more than 30 years ago, but the ingredient ratios were not quite the same as today. (LOL) So I made some modifications so that the cake will not lose volume even if I roll it up. ♪If the meringue is too stiff, it will be hard to incorporate the meringue into the batter later on. Adjust the amount of cream to your taste. If you have only a small amount of cream, you'll need to roll up the cake tightly and the cake is more likely to crack. The size of the baking tray should be 27- 30 cm. I used a 30 cm baking tray for the profile photo. Recipe by Lesser Panda
Moist Fluffy Roll Cake
I wanted to make a moist Roll cake batter, and after having failed many times, I finally came up with a good roll cake.I adapted the cream filling to my taste from a cookbook.This cream filling contains gelatin, which makes it very speedy to cook from step 19. Even if the baked surface of the batter gets spotty when removing the plastic wrap once cooled, it's not an issue since you're spreading cream over it. Recipe by Rearea cheese

Simply Made with Cocoa: Chocolate Roll Cake
Using"4 Ingredients! Chocolate Sponge Cake with Cocoa " and"No Need for Chocolate! Chocolate Cream with Cocoa"as a base, I made a chocolate roll cake!Use plain cocoa that doesn't have sugar and milk added!The eggs will boil through if you let them sit when warming them up, so be careful not to let that happen.Whip the eggs well, and continue to gently mix until it produces a glaze.If you don't mix it enough then it will be gritty, and it will become hard if you over mix it. For one 26 cm [10.2 in] x 35.5cm pan. Recipe by Hamumaki
Fluffy Chocolate Roll Cake
My other fluffy and moist roll cake recipe I made was rated very highly so I decided to make a chocolate version too.When mixing in the cake flour or mixing the cocoa batter, stir gently to avoid getting rid of too many air bubbles.For Step 9, I like the crust of the sponge so I don't take it off if it won't separate easily, but if you want the roll cake to look its best, I recommend removing it.

Fluffy Chocolate Roll Cake
I've collected all of the tips for making this roll cake into a separate recipe, refer to.-If you whip the cream fully until stiff peaks form then you shouldn't go wrong.-I changed the ingredients as it seemed this cake had been a bit difficult to roll until now. Those that tried anyway, your cakes came out wonderfully. Thanks for making it. Recipe by Shokora vanilla
Moist Roll Cake with Milk, Butter and Cream
I tried to make something featuring cream.Make sure you whip the cream well. I've never made it with full fat dairy cream, but the butter gives it a richness, so cheap non-dairy cream is fine. Recipe by kkomugi
Cocoa Crepe Roll Cake with Whole Strawberries
I wanted to eat a roll cake, but using the oven was too much of a bother...so I thought this up. I used "mille-feuille crepes" (multi-layered crepe cakes) as my inspiration. I made the crepes in a square tamagoyaki (omelet) pan the crepes were all the same shape and easy to roll up!The cream will ooze out from the edges if it is too liquid when you roll the crepes up, but if you whip it properly it's easier to roll. Alternatively, instead of rolling up each crepe, try stacking up all the crepes first and then roll them all together in one go. This produces a neater roll.Use any leftover crepe batter or filling to eat as regular crepes! Recipe by yaburie
Silky, Smooth Roll Cake
I got the idea to use bread flour to make sponge cake, and was so happy at the resulting silky, substantial texture!When the cake is coated with crushed almonds, it's so delicious!*You can leave out the peanut cream, and just use jheavy cream.*If you don't use crushed almonds, adjust the amount of sugar in the heavy cream.*If you use granulated sugar, the sponge cake will have a slightly lighter texture.

Fluffy Chocolate Roll Cake - With Tips
I made this fluffy chocolate roll cake as easy to understand as possible, and added points that make it easy for me to roll it up. The time in the steps is how long it took me to make each one. I don't know if it will be a good reference or not!- If you take shortcuts on the meringue, it will swell up.- Prevent the cake from drying out after baking.- Roll tightly at first, and then lightly towards the end, then place into the fridge to settle; doing this will prevent it from unrolling . For 26x37cm [10.2x14.6 in] pan inner dimensions using a national bistro pan. i changed it to an approximate measurement.. Recipe by Shokora vanilla
Moist and Spongy Souffle Roll Cake
I tried this recipe because I wanted to make a smooth and yet filling roll cake.By bringing the butter to a complete boil, combining with flour really well will allow the eggs and milk to be incorporated into the batter.If this process doesn’t go well, the batter becomes watery and the end product will have a rubbery texture. For 30 cm [11.8 in] baking pan. Recipe by tai51
Moist and Melt-in-Your-Mouth Swiss Roll Cake
The sponge I made at home used to be quite dry...My friend gave me a patisserie's recipe and I arranged it to my liking.Follow these instructions carefully. Make a good meringue. When you mix the meringue and the other mixture, make sure that air still remains in the meringue. If you are not careful about this, the finished sponge cake will end up like baked hard custard pudding. Recipe by Chopomama

Easy Fluffy Fruit Roll Cake
I made this cake for Hina matsuri.The temperature and cooking time in the oven are average. Please adjust them depending on your oven.You whip the whole eggs together, so it may take a little while, but you will have a fluffy sponge cake if you whip them really well. Recipe by Raburimei
Melt in Your Mouth Chocolate Chiffon Roll Cake
I tried making a roll cake with chocolate added to the batter, but it came out heavy and was difficult to roll. So I tried it with just cocoa and the result was a fluffy, moist cake perfectly balanced with rich chocolate cream.- Adjust the baking time and ingredient amounts to the oven and baking pan you're using. The ingredients in parentheses show the amounts for making this recipe with 3 eggs.- I used dark chocolate this time, so I used 15 g of sugar, but please use the amount of sugar you like!- Don't worry if the cake rips a little when you roll it up. After a while, the ripped part will absorb back into the cake and won't be noticeable. After chilling in the refrigerator for 2 - 3 hours, cut the cake with a warm knife. It will slice beautifully this way. Recipe by satomako
Polka Dotted Roll Cake
I love roll cakes and I was wondering if I could make a roll cake stylish with parchment paper. I referred to a recipe by Takako Inada for the sponge cake.Be careful when you peel off the parchment paper! Otherwise the polka dot pattern may get damaged.White chocolate polka dots in a cocoa sponge cake would be cute as well . Recipe by Asaemon

Fall is around the corner and it's time for warm spices baking!I found the original recipe online but I've adapted it a little (it was a little too sweet) and have to say that now it's AWESOME!!Let me add that the topping is very dense and sticky; making it,I thought it would be hard and crunchy but it's not❤️❤️Enjoy!!❤️❤️
Berry Berry Roll Cake
I had a lot of strawberries I'd bought cheaply, so this is a recipe I made to have as a snack. I like the moist and fluffy sponge that you can that you can just easily mix in one bowl.Make sure the bain marie (hot water bath) doesn't get too hot. If you beat the batter for about 3 minutes over a 60°C hot water bath, it will just about warm up to body temperature. If you don't have a thermometer, the batter should be just hot enough that if you stick the tip of a finger in it feels a bit hot. Make sure not to burn yourself! Recipe by Uniikura

Premium Roll Cake
I saw a TV show where they showed a premium roll cake factory that placed roll cake slices into cupcake cups. This was a revelation to me, since I couldn't figure out how they made this type of roll-cupcake before! So I tried imitating the method!This is best when it's freshly made and the filling is creamy and rich.You can add plenty of fruit of any type!You don't have to worry about keeping the slices perfectly neat, and they make great gifts too.
