Chocolate Ice Cream Cake Roll Recipe
Ingredients
Making your own chocolate ice cream cake roll is surprisingly easy. The ingredients needed are not too many:
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 quart of your favorite ice cream, softened
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
In addition to the ingredients, you will need a 10-inch round cake pan, kitchen parchment paper, and a large cutting board.
Instructions
To make your ice cream cake roll, first preheat your oven to 350°F. Line the cake pan with parchment paper. Grease the parchment paper and the sides of the cake pan with a light coating of cooking spray. Place the eggs and granulated sugar in a large bowl. With a hand mixer, beat the eggs and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
In a separate bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and flour. Add the dry ingredients to the egg and sugar mixture. Beat until the ingredients are well combined. Stir in the vanilla extract and mini chocolate chips. Spread the batter into the prepared cake pan.
Bake the cake for 18-20 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. Run a sharp knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the cake. Place a cutting board or cookie sheet on top of the cake and invert. Carefully peel away the parchment paper.
Now it's time to assemble the cake roll. Spread the softened ice cream evenly over the cake. Sprinkle the toasted pecans over the ice cream. Place a piece of parchment paper on top of the nuts. Using the parchment paper as an aid, roll the cake as tightly as possible. Wrap the cake in plastic wrap and place in the freezer until firm, at least 2 hours.
Just before serving, combine the heavy cream and remaining 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder in a bowl. Beat the cream and cocoa with an electric mixer until the cream forms stiff peaks. Unwrap the cake and place it on a serving plate. Spread the whipped cream over the cake. Slice and serve immediately.
