Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

175g/6oz good-quality dark chocolate, finely chopped
6 free-range eggs, yolk and white separated
175g/6oz caster sugar
2 tbsp cocoa powder
300ml/10fl oz double cream
icing sugar, to dust

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/160 Fan/Gas 4. Lightly grease a 33cm x 23cm/13in x 9in Swiss roll tin then line the base and sides of the tin with a large sheet of greaseproof paper, pushing it into the corners.
  • Melt the chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. (Do not let the base of the bowl touch the water.) Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
  • Place the egg whites in a large bowl and whisk until stiff but not dry. If you turn the bowl upside down, the whites should be stiff enough not to fall out.
  • Place the egg yolks in a separate bowl with the sugar and whisk on high speed for 2-3 minutes or until thick and creamy and the mixture leaves a thick ribbon-like trail when the beaters are lifted. Pour in the cooled chocolate and gently fold together until well combined.
  • Gently stir two large spoonfuls of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to loosen the mix, then fold in the remaining egg whites using a large metal spoon (you don't want to squash out the air you have just beaten in). Sift in the cocoa and lightly fold it in. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and gently move the tin around until the mixture is level.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until risen and the top feels firm and slightly crisp. Remove from the oven, leave in the tin (expect the roulade to fall and crack a little) and set aside until cold.
  • Whip the cream until it just holds its shape. Lay a large piece of greaseproof paper on the work surface and dust it lightly with icing sugar. Turn the roulade out on to the paper so its lining paper is on top, then carefully peel off the paper. Spread the roulade with the whipped cream, leaving a border of about 2cm/¾in all the way around the edges. With one of the shortest edges facing you, make a cut along it with a sharp knife, going about half way through the sponge. This will help to start the rolling up. Now roll this cut edge over tightly to start with and use the paper to help continue the tight rolling, by pulling it away from you as you roll. Don't worry if the roulade cracks - that is quite normal and all part of its charm.
  • Finish with the join underneath then lift the roulade onto a serving plate or board using a large wide spatula or two fish slices. Dust with icing sugar.

CHOCOLATE ROULADE

Freshly brewed coffee gives this dessert a subtle mocha flavor, but water can be substituted. The cake will crack slightly, but not break, as you roll it.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon brewed coffee (or water)
7 large eggs, separated
1 cup granulated sugar
Unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder, for dusting
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 13-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt chocolate with coffee or water in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Let cool completely. Whisk together yolks and granulated sugar with a mixer on medium speed until pale and thick, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and slowly add chocolate mixture, whisking until incorporated.
  • Whisk whites in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Gently fold whites into chocolate mixture, using a rubber spatula, until combined, being careful not to deflate whites.
  • Spread batter evenly on lined baking sheet. Bake until cake is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack, and let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • Loosen edges of cake from pan using a knife or an offset spatula. Dust top with cocoa powder, and turn out onto wire rack. Remove parchment, and let cool at least 1 hour. Beat cream and confectioners' sugar until soft peaks form. Spread evenly over top of cake, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges, and tightly roll, starting at 1 short side. Transfer to a baking sheet, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight. Lightly dust cake with cocoa powder.

CHOCOLATE ROULADE



Chocolate roulade image

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

vegetable oil, for the tin
5 egg whites
1 tsp lemon juice
225g caster sugar
60g cocoa powder, plus extra for dusting
1 tsp cornflour
100g dark chocolate, plus extra to serve
100ml double cream
150ml double cream
25g caster sugar
100g caramel sauce (from a can or jar), stirred until smooth
pinch of sea salt flakes

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:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Choose the Right Tangerines: Select ripe, juicy tangerines for the best flavor in your roulade. Look for those that are brightly colored and free of blemishes.
  • Zest the Tangerines Finely: To get the most flavor from the tangerines, use a fine grater to zest them. This will release the essential oils and give your roulade a burst of citrusy goodness.
  • Keep the Roulade Thin: When you spread the chocolate batter onto the baking sheet, make sure it is thin and even. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from becoming dry.
  • Don't Overfill the Roulade: Be careful not to overfill the roulade with filling. Too much filling can make it difficult to roll and may cause it to burst.
  • Chill the Roulade Before Serving: Before serving, chill the roulade for at least 30 minutes. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

The chocolate tangerine roulade is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its combination of rich chocolate and tangy tangerine, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this roulade a try.
