Ingredients

Servings

• 4 unit Eggs
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• ³⁄₄ cup All-purpose flour
• ¹⁄₄ cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₄ cup Milk
• 2 tablespoon Vegetable oil
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₄ cup Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Whipped cream
• ¹⁄₂ cup Fresh berries

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 10x15-inch (25x38 cm) jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
4. Stir in the vegetable oil and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared jelly roll pan and spread it evenly.
6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
7. While the cake is still warm, dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Invert the cake onto the towel and carefully peel off the parchment paper.
8. Starting from one short end, roll the cake and towel together. Allow it to cool completely in the rolled position.
9. Gently unroll the cake and spread whipped cream over the surface. Roll the cake back up, removing the towel as you go.
10. Transfer the cocoa roll cake to a serving platter and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
11. Slice the roll cake into servings and serve with fresh berries on top.
