Description

A delightful dessert that combines rich chocolate flavor with creamy peanut butter, rolled with a smooth filling and topped with sweet chocolate ganache.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (for ganache)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15×10 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the milk and vanilla extract, then mix well.
  3. In another bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the egg mixture until combined.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
  5. Remove the cake from the oven and cool for 5 minutes. Invert it onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off the parchment and roll the cake up in the towel from one short edge. Let it cool completely.
  6. In a mixing bowl, beat together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.
  7. Unroll the cooled cake and spread the peanut butter filling evenly on top. Carefully roll the cake back up and place it seam-side down on a serving plate.
  8. Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan until just simmering. Pour it over the chocolate chips and let it sit for a few minutes. Stir until smooth and drizzle it over the rolled cake.
  9. Slice and enjoy your chocolate-peanut butter creation!

Notes

Serve chilled or at room temperature. Add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side for extra indulgence. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
