Ingredients

Scale

Cake Ingredients

  • 4 large Eggs
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 3/4 cup All-purpose Flour (or gluten-free blend for gluten-free option)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon Mint Extract
  • 1/2 cup Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • Green Food Coloring (optional)

Filling Ingredients

  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon Mint Extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a 15×10 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it to ensure the cake lifts out smoothly after baking.
  2. Whip the Egg Mixture: Beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until pale, thick, and fluffy—this aerates the batter and keeps the sponge light.
  3. Add Flavor and Dry Ingredients: Carefully fold in flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and mint extract. Gently mix to avoid deflating the eggs but ensure the ingredients are fully incorporated.
  4. Incorporate Chocolate Chips and Color: Fold in mini chocolate chips evenly and add green food coloring if using. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  5. Bake the Cake: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Roll the Cake: While still warm, carefully invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Peel off the parchment paper, then roll the cake gently with the towel inside to form a spiral—this prevents cracking later.
  7. Prepare the Filling: Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Add a hint of mint extract to enhance the flavor.
  8. Assemble the Cake Roll: Unroll the cooled cake gently and spread the minty whipped cream evenly. Then roll it up tightly but gently without the towel.
  9. Chill and Serve: Wrap the cake roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour before slicing to set and meld the flavors.

Notes

  • Beat eggs thoroughly with sugar for a fluffy sponge.
  • Roll the cake while warm to prevent cracks.
  • Fold dry ingredients gently to maintain airiness.
  • Chill the cake roll properly for best texture and flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness and mint intensity to taste before spreading the filling.
