How to Make Passover Chocolate Roll
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour an 11x16 inch jelly roll pan.
- Line the pan with parchment paper, ensuring it extends over the edges for easy rolling. Grease the parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat 6 large egg yolks until light and fluffy. Gradually add 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, beating until the mixture is thick and pale yellow.
- In a separate saucepan, melt 8 ounces of bittersweet chocolate with ¼ cup strong brewed coffee over low heat. Stir until smooth and let cool slightly.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture and beat until well combined.
- In a clean bowl, beat 6 large egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully invert the cake onto a clean piece of parchment paper.
- Peel off the original parchment paper. Let the cake cool completely.
- Trim the edges of the cake if they are dry using a sharp knife.
- Dust the top of the cake lightly with unsweetened cocoa powder.
- To make the filling: In a chilled bowl, beat 2 cups heavy cream with 2 teaspoons vanilla extract and ¼ cup powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Set aside ¼ cup of the whipped cream for garnish. Spread the remaining whipped cream evenly over the cake, leaving about 1 inch of the narrow side uncovered.
- Starting from the opposite narrow side, tightly roll the cake into a log.
- Frost the top of the rolled cake with the reserved whipped cream.
- If desired, garnish with chocolate shavings or curls.
- Wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap and freeze until ready to serve. Thaw slightly before slicing. Cut into approximately 1-inch thick slices.
