Ingredients
For the Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups unsalted butter, softened
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups milk
For the Peanut Butter Filling:
½ cup creamy peanut butter
1½ cups powdered sugar
2½ cups heavy cream
Directions:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
1 Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Prepare the Dry Ingredients
2 In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugar
3 In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and milk until combined.
Step 4: Combine Mixtures
4 Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just incorporated.
Step 5: Bake the Cake
5 Pour the batter into the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow it to cool slightly.
Step 6: Make the Peanut Butter Filling
6 In a bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold it into the peanut butter mixture until well combined.
Step 7: Assemble the Roulade
7 Once the cake has cooled, carefully invert it onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with cocoa powder. Peel off the parchment paper, then spread the peanut butter filling evenly over the cake. Starting from one edge, roll the cake into a log shape using the towel to assist.
Step 8: Chill and Serve
8 Wrap the cake roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour. Once chilled, slice and enjoy your delicious chocolate peanut butter cake roulade!
