Preparation
Step 1
•Place egg whites in a small bowl; let stand at room temperature for
30 minutes. Line a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan with
waxed paper; grease the paper and set aside.
•In a large bowl, beat egg yolks on high speed for 5 minutes or until
thick and lemon-colored. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar.
Stir in vanilla. Sift flour and cocoa together twice; gradually add
to yolk mixture and mix well (batter will be very thick).
•Beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add
sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high until stiff peaks
form. Gradually fold into batter. Spread evenly into prepared pan.
•Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until cake springs back when
lightly touched. Cool for 5 minutes. Invert onto a kitchen towel
dusted with baking cocoa. Gently peel off waxed paper. Roll up cake
in the towel jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Cool
completely on a wire rack.
•In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and dry pudding mix
until smooth. Beat in vanilla. Gradually beat in cream until thick.
•Unroll cake; spread 2-1/2 cups filling evenly over cake to within 1/2
in. of edges. Roll up again. Place seam side down on a serving
platter. Frost top, sides and ends with remaining filling. Cover and
refrigerate for 1 hour.
•In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chips, jam and cream.
Microwave, uncovered, on high for 1-2 minutes or until smooth,
stirring every 30 seconds. Stir in extract. Serve with cake.
