The classic Chocolate Swiss Roll cake consists of a light cake that is made by combining meringue with a Cocoa Powder based chocolate mix. The cake batter is then poured out over a large sheet pan and baked. Once the cake is hot, it is molded into the shape of a roll. Once cooled, Cream is added to the cake which is then rolled up

Finally, to finish off the decadence of this wonderful dessert, a layer of Chocolate Ganache is poured over the top of the cake. It\u2019s placed in the refrigerator for a few hours to set, then it\u2019s time to eat! It\u2019s a great dessert to make for a big gathering with family and friends because of how generous it is. You\u2019ll get 12+ slices easily, so plenty of food for a large family (or for a few hungry people who wants seconds and thirds!)
