Categories: Blank
Yield: 4 Servings

  ***** NONE *****

Preparation time: about 30 minutes. Baking time: about 10 minutes. Chilling time: at least 2 hours.

You'd never guess this rich cake roll was made without chocolate bars and whipping cream! Õ3/4 c. all-purpose flour 1/4 c. unsweetened cocoa 1 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 1 egg 1 c. granulated sugar 1/3 c. water 1 tsp. vanilla 3 egg whites 1/2 c. powdered sugar Ricotta Filling (recipe follows) Õ Lightly grease a rimmed 10 x 15 inch baking pan and line with wax paper; grease paper. In a bowl, mix flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.

In large bowl of an electric mixer, beat egg at high speed until thick and lemon-colored. Gradually add granulated sugar; continue to beat, scraping bowl often, until mixture is creamy and pale. Beat in water and vanilla. Fold in flour mixture.

In small bowl of mixer, using clean, dry beaters, beat egg whites until they hold stiff peaks. Fold into batter. Pour into prepared pan; spread evenly.

Bake in a 375 degrees oven until top of cake springs back when lightly pressed (about 10 minutes). Immediately invert cake onto a dishtowel sprinkled with 3 tablespoons of the powdered sugar. Peel off wax paper; immediately roll cake and towel into a cylinder, starting with short side. Let cool completely on a rack. Meanwhile, prepare filling.

Unroll cooled cake, spread with filling, and reroll (do not be concerned if cake cracks). Wrap filled cake in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours. Sift remaining powdered sugar over cake before serving. Make 12 servings.
