Ingredients
Scale
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1/4 cup of high-quality cocoa powder
1 cup of granulated sugar
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/4 teaspoon of salt
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of peppermint extract
1 cup of heavy cream
2 cups of powdered sugar
1/2 cup of crushed candy canes
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan, lining it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set it aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until the mixture is thick and light in color, about 5 minutes.
Add in the vanilla and peppermint extracts. Stir in the flour mixture gently until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the cake springs back when touched.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and immediately invert it onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
Starting from one end, roll the cake up in the towel, gently but firmly. Allow it to cool completely while rolled, which should take about 30 minutes.
In a medium bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar, continuing to beat until fully combined.
Fold in the crushed candy canes, setting aside a small amount for garnish.
Once the cake is completely cool, carefully unroll it and spread the whipped cream mixture evenly across the surface.
Roll the cake back up, this time without the towel, and place it seam-side down on a serving platter.
Dust the top with additional powdered sugar and garnish with the remaining crushed candy canes for that festive touch.
Notes
A delightful peppermint roll cake perfect for Christmas gatherings, combining rich chocolate and refreshing peppermint flavors.
