Step 1
Enjoy!
Step 2
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whip cream, 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup cocoa, and 1 teaspoon vanilla until thick and stiff. Refrigerate.
Step 3
Immediately fold the yolk mixture into the whites.
Step 4
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Step 5
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat egg yolks with 1/2 cup sugar until pale in color, light and frothy. Blend in 1/3 cup cocoa, 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla, and salt.
Step 6
In large glass bowl, using clean beaters, whip egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, and beat until whites form stiff peaks.
Step 7
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
Step 8
Dust a clean dishtowel with confectioners' sugar. Run a knife around the edge of the pan, and turn the warm cake out onto the towel. Remove and discard parchment paper.
Step 9
Starting at the short edge of the cake, roll the cake up with the towel. Cool for 30 minutes.
Step 10
Unroll the cake, and spread the filling to within 1 inch of the edge.
Step 11
Roll the cake up with the filling inside. Place seam side down onto a serving plate, and refrigerate until serving.
