Ingredients:
1 cup cake flour, sifted |
1/4 cup cocoa |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
1/3 cup brewed coffee, cold |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1/4 cup strong coffee |
1 cup butter |
3/4 cup light corn syrup |
4 egg yolks |
1 1/2 cups heavy cream |
2 teaspoons instant coffee |
1/2 cup powdered sugar |
Directions:
1. Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt together in a small bowl; set aside. In separate bowl beat eggs until thick and creamy.
2. Gradually add sugar, beating constantly until mixture is very thick.
3. Stir in coffee & vanilla.
4. Fold in flour mixture. Spread batter evenly in pan.
5. Bake at 375 degrees for 12 minutes.
6. Sprinkle kitchen towel with powdered sugar, invert cake onto towel, remove waxed paper and roll cake and towel jelly roll fashion.
7. Cool.
8. When cake has cooled unroll, spr ead with filling, reroll.
9. Beat cream until stiff.

12. Cool.
13. Beat butter in small bowl until light and fluffy.

17. This looks like a regular 2 layer cake until you cut into it.
