Roll up and try this delightfully sweet roulade recipe

6 eggs
150g caster sugar
40g plain flour, sifted
25g good-quality dark cocoa, sifted, plus extra to dust
150g mascarpone
1/2 cup (125ml) pure (thin) cream
35g pure icing sugar, sifted
40g dark (70%) chocolate, finely chopped
1/2 tsp peppermint extract
Micro mint leaves, to serve

Method

1.

Preheat oven to 160°C. Grease a Swiss roll pan and line with baking paper. Place eggs and caster sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment and whisk until thick and pale. Fold in flour and 20g cocoa. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 18 minutes or until centre springs back when lightly pressed.
2.

Invert hot cake onto a clean tea towel dusted with cocoa. Roll up from short edge to form a roulade (tea towel will roll up inside roulade). Cool completely.
3.

Place mascarpone, cream and icing sugar in a bowl and whisk until stiff peaks form. Fold in chocolate, remaining 5g cocoa and peppermint extract. Unroll cooled roulade, remove tea towel, and spread cream mixture over sponge. Roll up again. Dust with cocoa and scatter with micro mint leaves, to serve.
