Instructions
 

Prepare the Cake Roll

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until thick and pale.
  • Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture carefully.
  • Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 12-15 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and cool for a few minutes, then invert the cake onto a kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
  • Roll the cake tightly with the towel and let it cool completely.

Make the Cookie Dough Filling

  • In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract, followed by the heat-treated flour and salt.
  • Fold in the mini chocolate chips to form the cookie dough.

Assemble the Cake Rolls

  • Unroll the cooled cake and spread the softened vanilla ice cream evenly over it.
  • Layer the cookie dough mixture on top of the ice cream and roll the cake back up without the towel.
  • Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours.

Serve

  • Slice the frozen cake rolls and serve immediately to guests.

Notes

Ensure ingredients are at room temperature. Avoid overmixing the cake batter, and use a dusted towel to prevent sticking.
