Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat a 13-by-18-inch rimmed jelly-roll pan with cooking spray; line with parchment. Coat lining with cooking spray. Dust with cocoa; tap out excess. Sift cocoa, flour, cornstarch, and salt together into a bowl; set aside.

CHOCOLATE GLAZE OR FROSTING
This is very quick to prepare and can be used immediately after making as a glaze to drizzle on your cake or dessert. You can let it sit a few minutes and it will thicken up into a delicious and creamy frosting. Or add a little more powdered sugar to thicken it even more. I have no idea of the number of servings because it would depend on what you were using it for. So I just stuck a number in because I had to put something there. But I would probably double it for a two layer cake. But for a glaze over a cake or dessert this would probably be plenty.

CHOCOLATE ROULADE
Make our next level chocolate roulade, with a spectacular chocolate meringue encasing a chocolate and cream filling and caramel sauce
Provided by Barney Desmazery
Categories Dessert
Time 55m
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Oil the base and sides of a 23 x 32cm baking tray and line with baking parchment. Beat the egg whites, lemon juice and a pinch of salt together using a stand mixer or electric whisk until very stiff. Add 1 tbsp of the sugar and beat to stiff peaks, then add the rest of the sugar, a spoonful at a time, until the mixture is thick and shiny. Sift over the cocoa and cornflour, then gently fold these in with a spatula until completely combined. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared tin, then bake for 14-15 mins until just crisp to the touch. Leave to cool completely in the tin.
- Meanwhile, make the fillings. For the chocolate filling, tip the chocolate and cream into a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water and stir until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is shiny and smooth. Remove from the heat and leave to cool to room temperature. For the cream filling, whisk the cream and sugar together to stiff peaks using an electric whisk.
- Dust a large sheet of baking parchment with cocoa powder, then carefully flip the meringue onto it. Remove the tin and carefully peel away the parchment. With a short end facing you, score a line across the meringue, 2cm in from the edge. Spread over the chocolate filling followed by the cream, then drizzle with most of the caramel sauce. Sprinkle over the sea salt flakes and drag a palette or cutlery knife through the fillings to gently swirl them. Roll up the roulade into a tight log, starting at the scored end and using the parchment underneath to help you. Lift onto a platter or board. Will keep chilled for up to a day. Drizzle over the remaining caramel sauce, then finely grate over more chocolate to serve.

Tips:
- To make the chocolate glaze, use semisweet or bittersweet chocolate. Dark chocolate can be used, but it will result in a more intense flavor.
- To achieve a smooth and glossy glaze, strain the melted chocolate through a fine-mesh sieve.
- If the glaze is too thick, thin it out with a little bit of milk or cream.
- If the glaze is too thin, thicken it up by adding a little bit of powdered sugar.
- To create a marbled effect, swirl a different color of chocolate into the prepared glaze.
- To add extra flavor to the glaze, stir in a little bit of vanilla extract, almond extract, or rum.
- For a shiny glaze, brush the roulade with a little bit of simple syrup before applying the glaze.
- To set the glaze quickly, place the roulade in the refrigerator or freezer for a few minutes.
Conclusion:
A chocolate glaze is a delicious and versatile way to finish off a roulade. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can create a smooth, glossy, and flavorful glaze that will make your roulade look and taste amazing.
