HO HO CAKE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a 15.5 x 10.5 x 1-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper . Generously grease the paper with unsalted butter. Either using a standing mixer or mixing by hand, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar, continuously beating until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
• In a separate medium bowl, beat the 4 egg yolks and vanilla on medium speed for 3 minutes. Gradually add the remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar and continue to beat for 2 additional minutes.
• In a third small bowl, stir together the flour and 1/3 cup of the cocoa powder. Add the baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Beating on low speed, add the cocoa mixture to the egg yolk mixture alternating with tablespoons of the water, just until the batter is smooth.
• Gradually fold the cocoa mixture into the beaten egg whites until well blended. Don't overmix or you risk deflating the egg whites.
• Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the top springs back when touched lightly in the center.
• While the sponge bakes, coat a linen or thin cotton tea towel with the remaining 1/3 cup of cocoa powder-it should at least cover the size and shape of the jelly roll pan.
• Once the cake is baked, immediately loosen it from the edges of the pan. Invert the cake onto the prepared towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper. Roll the cake and towel together, starting from the narrow end. Place on a wire rack to cool completely-the trick is to coax the cake into a rolled shape while it is still warm to keep it from cracking.
• Using a standing mixer or by hand, whip the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed until medium to stiff peaks form, or about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Spread the prepared whipped cream filling evenly over the top of the sponge, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the cake. Gently roll the cake back up, this time without the towel. Place on a wire rack set on a baking sheet and refrigerate while preparing the ganache.
• Place chocolate chips, heavy cream, and light corn syrup in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until the chips are melted and the ganache is smooth.
• Pour the ganache all over the cake roll. Spoon up any dripped ganache and pour it over the cake again. Refrigerate for at least 30 to 60 minutes before slicing and serving.
• Enjoy.

CHOCOLATE HO HO CAKE

Steps:

• Make cake according to directions on package (or use your favorite homemade chocolate cake recipe). Let cake cool completely.
• In a medium saucepan, whisk flour into half and half over medium heat on stove top. Whisk constantly until very thick, similar to the consistency of thick pudding or custard- it will take a couple of minutes. Cool completely (place in refrigerator if you want to speed the cooling process). Stir in vanilla. In a mixing bowl, mix 1 cup softened butter and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add cooled flour/milk mixture to butter/sugar mixture and beat until light and fluffy (will take a couple of minutes). Spread on cooled cake.
• Dump chocolate chips in a bowl. Heat heavy cream and pour hot cream over chocolate. Let sit for a minute; stir gently to melt. Cream butter and powdered sugar in another bowl and then stir the two mixtures together. If you want it to be thicker, add more powdered sugar. If you want it to be thinner, add more whipping cream. Spread on cake immediately because the frosting starts to set up and become grainy in appearance if you let it sit for long.
