Step-by-Step Instruction

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy. This should take about 5 minutes.
  3. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gently fold in the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Be careful not to deflate the batter.
  4. Spread the Batter: Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly to ensure uniform baking.
  5. Bake the Cake: Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10-12 minutes. The cake should spring back when touched lightly.
  6. Cool and Roll: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool slightly. Using the parchment paper, gently roll the warm cake into a log and set aside to cool completely.
  7. Make the Filling: In a saucepan over low heat, combine the condensed milk and butter, stirring constantly until thick and smooth.
  8. Add Peanut Crunch: Stir in the chopped roasted peanuts into the filling mixture and let it cool.
  9. Unroll and Fill: Unroll the cooled cake carefully, then spread the peanut-caramel mixture evenly over the top.
  10. Roll It Up: Gently roll the cake back up, encasing the filling by using the parchment paper to guide the rolling process.
  11. Prepare the Chocolate Topping: Melt the dark chocolate, ensuring it's smooth and easy to spread.
  12. Coat the Roll: Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the cake roll, covering all sides.
  13. Drizzle with Caramel: Drizzle the top with caramel sauce for an extra layer of flavor and visual appeal.
  14. Chilling Time: Place the completed roll in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set the filling and coating.
  15. Slice and Serve: Once set, slice the roll into 1-inch pieces for serving.
  16. Garnishing: Just before serving, sprinkle additional chopped peanuts over each slice, if desired.
  17. Store Leftovers: Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  18. Reheat Before Serving: Let sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving for the best texture.
  19. Enjoy: Relish each bite with its combination of creamy, crunchy, and gooey textures.
  20. Pairing Notes: Complements a sweet dessert wine or a hot aromatic coffee.
