Decadent Homemade Chocolate Swiss Roll: A Delicious Treat for Any Occasion

1. Cake:
Start by preheating your oven to 180°C. Then, beat the egg yolks together with the sugar until the mixture whitens and is well combined. Add the flour and milk, followed by the cocoa and mix well. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form and gently fold them into the cake batter. Pour the mixture into a rectangular mold lined with parchment paper and bake for 12 to 15 minutes.

2. Cream:
While the cake is baking, mix the butter until it reaches a creamy texture, then add the liquid cream and icing sugar. Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler and add it to the mixture, stirring until smooth.

3. Frosting:
Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler and stir in the icing sugar until it forms a smooth glaze.

4. Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and place it on a damp cloth sprinkled with sugar. Spread the cream over the cake and roll it up. Trim the ends to create a neat, uniform log. Allow it to cool completely before covering it in the chocolate glaze.

There you have it! A delightful chocolate roulade that is sure to impress your friends and family. So go ahead, treat yourself to a slice of this heavenly dessert and savor every bite.
