Provided by Melanie

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h45m

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 eggs (divided)
½ cup sugar (+ ⅓ cup, divided)
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ cup flour
⅓ cup cocoa powder
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup water
½ cup freeze dried raspberries (½ ounce)
8 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
½ teaspoon vanilla
pinch of salt
1 cup powdered sugar (divided)
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
6 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
6 ounces raspberries (fresh)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (325°F if using a dark pan). Line a 10×15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and grease with cooking spray.
  • In a mixing bowl, use an electric hand mixer to beat egg whites until soft peaks (peaks fall when you lift the beaters). While mixing, slowly add in the ½ cup sugar and beat until stiff peaks.
  • In a bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, beat egg yolks on medium speed for 3 minutes, add the ⅓ cup sugar and vanilla and beat 2 more minutes.
  • In another mixing bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Alternately add flour mix and the ⅓ cup water to the egg yolk mixture in the stand mixer. When thoroughly mixed (scrape down sides of the bowl), fold the chocolate batter into the egg whites a little at a time. Keep stirring until completely combined.
  • Spread batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 12-15 minutes until toothpick comes back clean and cake springs back when lightly touched.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a dish towel coated thoroughly in powdered sugar.
  • When the cake is done, immediately invert it onto the towel. Remove the parchment paper and then starting at the narrow end, roll it up. Let it cool completely.
  • Place freeze dried raspberries in a blender and pulse into a fine powder (yields about 2 tablespoons).
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat heavy whipping cream and ¼ cup powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Remove whipped cream into a separate bowl.
  • In the stand mixer bowl (no need to clean) fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in ¾ cup powdered sugar, raspberry powder, vanilla, and salt.
  • Fold in 1 ½ cups of the whipped cream until combined and place the remaining whipped cream the fridge to use as a garnish on top (you may need to whip with a whisk if it loses stiffness).
  • Carefully unroll the cake. Spread the raspberry filling evenly over the entire surface and then roll the cake back up the same way it was rolled before.
  • Place cake roll on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the fridge for at least 3 hours.
  • Heat the 6 tablespoons whipping cream in the microwave for 45 seconds or until hot and then add the chocolate chips. Cover and let it sit for two minutes and then stir until smooth. Let the ganache come to room temperature (about 5-10 minutes) before pouring and spreading over the cake.
  • Let the ganache cool on the cake for about 5 minutes and then top with the whipped cream (the leftover from the filling) and fresh raspberries. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Slice and serve. Store leftover cake in the fridge.

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 (1 ounce) squares fine-quality semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 ½ cups hot brewed coffee
3 cups white sugar
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
¾ teaspoon baking powder
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
3 large eggs
¾ cup vegetable oil
1 ½ cups well-shaken buttermilk
¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
½ pound fine-quality semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 (20 ounce) packages frozen raspberries, thawed
½ cup white sugar
1 lemon, zested
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Combine chopped chocolate and hot coffee in a bowl. Stir occasionally until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Set aside.
  • Sift sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Beat eggs in a bowl using an electric mixer until slightly thickened and lemon-colored. Slowly add oil, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and melted chocolate mixture. Beat until well combined. Add sugar-flour mixture; beat on medium speed until just combined. Divide batter between the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes. Let cool completely in pans on wire racks, about 30 minutes. Invert layers onto racks.
  • While cakes are cooling, bring heavy cream, sugar, and corn syrup to a boil over low heat in a small saucepan. Whisk until sugar dissolves. Add chocolate; whisk until melted. Add butter; whisk until smooth. Let ganache frosting cool until spreadable, about 10 minutes.
  • While frosting and cakes continue to cool, puree raspberries in a food processor. Press through a fine mesh strainer with the back of a spoon into a saucepan. Pour in sugar and cornstarch; bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Cook until thickened and reduced, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in lemon zest. Remove raspberry filling from heat.
  • Cut each cake layer in 1/2 horizontally to produce 4 equal layers. Spread 1/3 raspberry filling onto each of 3 layers and stack. Place top layer onto cake. Spread ganache frosting evenly from center of top layer down the sides of the cake.

CHOCOLATE-RUM SWISS ROLL



Chocolate-Rum Swiss Roll image

Make this sweet Swiss roll from "Martha Stewart's Cooking School" for an unforgettable holiday dessert. Also try:Jelly Roll

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

Unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
Vegetable-oil cooking spray
1/4 cup sifted unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder, plus more for pan
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sifted cake flour (not self-rising), plus more for pan
Pinch of salt
3 large whole eggs plus 2 large egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled completely
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons light rum
1 1/4 cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • Prepare oven and baking sheet: Heat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in bottom half. Coat a 12 1/2-by-17 1/2-inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Line with parchment paper; coat with cooking spray. Dust with cocoa powder and tap out excess.
  • Combine dry ingredients: Whisk together cocoa powder, flour, and salt in a bowl.
  • Combine eggs and sugar: Bring about 2 inches of water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. In the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer set over (not in) simmering water, whisk eggs, yolks, and granulated sugar until sugar has dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch. Attach bowl to mixer fitted with whisk attachment; beat on medium-high speed for 2 minutes. Raise speed to high; beat until mixture is pale and thick, about 4 minutes more.
  • Add dry ingredients: Sift cocoa mixture over egg mixture; using a large rubber spatula, carefully fold. When almost incorporated, pour melted butter down side of bowl; gently fold to combine.
  • Bake: Using an offset spatula, spread batter evenly into prepared sheet. Bake cake until golden brown and springy to the touch, 6 to 7 minutes. Meanwhile, dust a clean kitchen towel with cocoa powder. Run a knife around sides of cake. Invert onto prepared towel, and remove parchment.
  • Roll into log and cool: While the sheet cake is still warm, gently roll, starting from one short side, into a log, incorporating the kitchen towel. Let the cake cool completely, rolled. (This will give the cake a "shape memory," so it will be easier to roll again with filling.)
  • Meanwhile, make rum syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the water and 1/4 cup sugar. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat; add rum, then let cool completely.
  • Fill cake and reroll: Unroll cake. Brush entire surface generously with cooled rum syrup. Whip cream and remaining tablespoon sugar until soft peaks form; spread over cake leaving a 1/2-inch border all around. Roll cake to enclose filling (without towel), starting at a short end. Wrap the towel around rolled cake, securing with clips or clothespins to help retain the shape.
  • Chill and serve: Refrigerate 30 minutes (or up to 3 hours). Dust with cocoa powder, cut into slices with a serrated knife, and serve.

1 box Devil's food cake mix (15.25 oz)
4 large eggs
1 box chocolate instant pudding (3.9 oz)
2/3 c raspberry rum
2/3 c water
1/2 c vegetable oil
1 c raspberry preserves
1/2 c raspberry rum
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 pt fresh raspberries

Tips:

  • Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help ensure that your cake batter mixes together evenly and smoothly.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake roll in a preheated oven. This will help prevent the cake from sinking in the middle.
  • When baking the cake roll, keep an eye on it so that it does not overcook. Overcooked cake will be dry and crumbly.
  • Once the cake roll is baked, let it cool completely before filling it. This will help prevent the filling from seeping out of the cake.
