Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as walnuts or almonds)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and line a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat 4 eggs and 1/2 cup of white sugar until thick and pale in color.
- Sift in 1/4 cup of cocoa powder, 1/4 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until well combined.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and mix until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared jelly roll pan and spread it out evenly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- While the cake is still warm, sprinkle the chopped nuts evenly over the surface.

- Starting from one short end, carefully roll up the cake and towel together. Place the rolled cake on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, carefully unroll the cake and spread with your favorite filling (such as whipped cream or chocolate ganache).
- Roll the cake back up without the towel, and place it seam side down on a serving platter.
- Dust with additional powdered sugar if desired, and slice to serve. Enjoy!
