Matcha Roll Cake White Chocolate Cream
- 70 grams Cake flour
- 10 grams Matcha
- 4 large size Egg
- 50 grams Sugar (for egg yolk)
- 40 grams Sugar (for egg white)
- 60 ml Milk
- 35 grams Vegetable oil
- 170 ml Heavy cream
- 90 grams White chocolate bar
- Line the baking tray with parchment paper.
- Separate the egg yolks and egg whites and place them in different bowls.
- Sift the flour and matcha together.
- While beating the egg whites, add sugar in several batches.
- The meringue should form peeks (but should not be too firm).
- Preheat the oven to 170C.
- Add all the sugar to the egg yolks, and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture becomes whitish yellow.
- Add milk to the bowl from Step 3, and mix well with an electric mixer on low speed.
- Add the oil and again mix well.
- Sift in the flour and matcha and whip some more.
- Using a spatula, add 1/3 of the meringue to the bowl from step 4 and mix.
- With a cutting motion, fold in half of the remaining meringue using the spatula.
- Add the remaining meringue to the bowl from step 5.
- Mix by lifting from the bottom of the bowl and folding in.
- The mixture should be fluffy and smooth.
- Pour the batter into the baking tray from a high place and gently shake the tray to flatten the surface.
- Tap the tray lightly a few times to eliminate any air bubbles.
- Bake for about 20 minutes in the 170C preheated oven.
- Place a sheet of parchment paper on the cooling rack.
- Flip the baked cake upside down onto the sheet of parchment paper.
- Gently remove the parchment paper that was set in the baking tray, cover the cake with parchment paper.
- Set aside until completely cooled.
- Make the cream.
- Finely chop the white chocolate and place it in a microwave safe bowl.
- Warm chocolate in the microwave or in a double boiler and mix well until completely melted.
- Whip the heavy cream until firm peaks form.
- Add the white chocolate and whip more.
- The cream will thicken when chilled in the fridge.
- The cream is ready.
- After the sponge cake is completely cooled, spread the cream.
- Leave 1 cm from the edges free, and spread the cream thicker on the near-side to make it easier to roll up.
- Slowly roll up the cake with the parchment paper intact, working forward away from your body.
- Wrap it up with the parchment paper and chill in the fridge until the cream has settled and it's done.
- I had candied chestnuts on hand, so I added them to the cream and decorated them on the top as well.
- This was the previous profile photo for this recipe.
- I used a larger baking sheet.
- The cake came out flatter.
- But I prefer thicker cakes.
