Chestnut Roll Cake-Number 1 Recipe

Instructions

MAKING ROLL CAKE

Use 12×16 inch jelly roll pan, line with aluminum foil (dull side up).

Spray with baking spray and set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 F.

In a large bowl beat 6 eggs and 3/4 cup sugar until triples in volume. (9 minutes)

Sift the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt.

Add into eggs mixture and fold gently using a spatula.

Important: Don’t use mixer when adding flour mixture.

Fold using a spatula.

Be sure that flour mixture is incorporated into eggs mixture.

Spread the batter on the prepared jelly roll pan.

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes.

Cool completely. (Don't roll this cake.)

Making Chestnut Filling

Mix heavy cream to soft peaks.

Then carefully fold in the chestnut cream and rum.

Be sure to mix all ingredients quickly or until incorporated.

Now, if your cake is cool, spread the cake with chestnut cream filling.

Roll it into a log.

Wrap in plastic wrap and transfer into the freezer.

Ready to serve?

When you are ready to serve, cut into desired sizes, top

with melted chocolate and icing sugar.

(Of course you can cover whole roll cake with chocolate and then cut)

If you are taking roll cake from freezer, leave it on room temperature

for about 90 minutes before you eat.
