I get so TENSE, mainly because I know that if I over-bake the cake even the slightest, it’s not going to roll well. Trust me… it’s happened before and I still remember that giant crumbly cake MESS in my kitchen.
But this time, I decided to make the roll, using a CAKE MIX and make my life easier.
I was still standing like a HAWK near the stove for the entire 11-12 minutes, while the cake was baking…hehe.
The end result was a MOUTHWATERING mocha cake roll with buttercream filling, topped off with glossy mocha ganache and fresh raspberries.
This cake was soft and creamy and had a big coffee KICK.
The subtle tartness from the raspberries PAIRED so well with the rich coffee flavor that I wanted to eat the entire cake myself…hahaha.
My hubby who is a huge coffee gave this cake a big THUMBS UP!
INGREDIENTS
- Mocha cake
- 1¾ cups Devil's food cake mix
- 3 Eggs Large
- ⅓ cup Water
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp Instant coffee granules
- ¼ cup Powdered sugar
- Chocolate ganache
- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips
- ½ cup Heavy cream
- 1 tbsp Instant coffee granules
- Filling
- Buttercream icing
- Decoration
- 1 cup Raspberries Fresh, washed and patted dry
- Shredded white chocolate
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a deep mixing bowl, add the eggs and mix until they are fluffy.
- Add water and oil and mix again.
- Add the cake mix and instant coffee granules and mix until just combined.
- Pour this batter into a jelly roll pan (Dimensions: 15in x 10in x 1in) lined with wax paper or parchment paper.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 11-12 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. DO NOT over bake!
- Spread a clean kitchen towel on a table and sprinkle generously with powdered sugar.
- Turn the cake onto the kitchen towel and remove the wax paper.
- While the cake is hot, carefully roll this cake with the towel intact from one end to the other.
- Place this cake roll on a cooling rack and allow it to cool down for 1 hour.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the buttercream icing.
- Also, prepare the ganache: Heat chocolate, heavy cream and instant coffee powder in a saucepan until everything is fully melted and smooth. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the ganache to cool down until it becomes slightly thick (but still has a pourable consistency).
- Now, unroll the cake gently and remove the towel.
- Spread the buttercream icing over the cake and re-roll it again.
- Pour the ganache over the cake and top it off with fresh raspberries and shredded white chocolate. Enjoy!
