Best 5 Chocolate Roulade With Mascarpone Filling Recipes

CHOCOLATE ROULADE WITH MASCARPONE FILLING

Steps:

• CAKE:.
• Preheat oven to 350º F/180ºC.
• Line a 15 x 10-inch jelly roll pan (swiss roll tin) with parchment paper.
• Using an electric mixer, whisk yolks and sugar until thick and pale.
• Sift cocoa and starch over then fold in gently.
• Add chocolate and 2 tablespoons water and stir gently to combine.
• Using an electric mixer, whisk egg whites in a clean bowl until soft peaks form, then fold into chocolate mixture.
• Spoon mixture into prepared pan and smooth top.
• Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly pressed.
• Dust top of cake heavily with cocoa then cover with a piece of parchment paper.
• Invert cake, with paper, on to a work surface, then gently peel away the parchment paper.
• Working quickly while cake is still hot, gently roll up from long side, using paper as a guide.
• Let cool completely before filling.
• MASCARPONE FILLING:.
• Combine marmalade, liqueur and 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan and stir over low-medium heat until combined and marmalade has melted.
• Combine with mascarpone in a bowl and whisk until thick.
• Stir in pistachios.
• Gently unroll cake and spread with filling, leaving a half inch (2 cm) border.
• Re-roll cake (it may crack a little), then wrap in foil and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until filling is firm.
• Cake will keep, refrigerated, for up to 3 days.
• Serve topped with raspberries, edible flowers or mint sprigs.
• *The cream filling may be made without the marmalade and pistachio's. If desired, you may make a cream filling with just the mascarpone cheese and orange liqueur.
• **Tips:
• Grease the jelly roll pan before lining it. This will make the paper sit flat and adhere to the corners.
• To fold egg whites into a batter, always use a large metal spoon and a light hand to preserve the air. Start by stirring 1/4 of the egg whites into the batter to lighten it, then gently fold in remaining egg white.
• Potato flour (potato starch) is available at most supermarkets in the baking or flour section.
• For the best flavor, use a dark chocolate with at least 60 % cocoa solids.

TRIPLE-CHOCOLATE EASTER ROULADE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and lightly oil a 33 x 23cm swiss roll tin. Line the base and sides with baking parchment, then lightly oil again. Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (ensuring the base of the bowl doesn't touch the water), or in 20-second bursts in the microwave. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Separate the eggs, putting the whites in one large bowl and the yolks in another. Whisk the whites to stiff peaks using an electric whisk - they should hold their shape. Tip the sugar into the yolks and whisk until the mixture is pale. Fold the melted dark chocolate into the yolk mixture, then loosen the chocolate mixture by folding in two big spoonfuls of the whipped egg whites. Add the remaining whipped egg whites, cocoa and ¼ tsp salt, and gently fold everything together to combine, being careful not to knock out the air. Spoon the batter into the prepared tin and bake for 18 mins. Remove from the oven and leave to cool until warm.
• While the sponge is still warm, gently roll it up into a spiral (with the baking parchment inside) from one of the short ends. Leave to cool completely, still rolled up (this will make it easier to roll once it's been filled). Melt the white chocolate as you did the dark, then leave to cool for 10 mins. Whisk together the vanilla, mascarpone, double cream and melted white chocolate until the mixture is thick and spoonable.
• Place the rolled-up roulade on a sheet of baking parchment and carefully unravel. Remove the original baking parchment, then evenly spread the mascarpone and white chocolate filling over the sponge, leaving a small border around the edges. Using the parchment to guide you, roll the roulade back into a spiral and chill for 20 mins.
• For the topping, heat the double cream in a small pan over a low heat until steaming. Tip the milk chocolate into a heatproof bowl with the golden syrup, then pour over the hot cream. Leave to stand for a moment, then stir everything together until melted together and smooth. Sit the roulade on a wire rack set over a baking tray and gently spoon the ganache over the top so it drips down the sides. Top the roulade with the mini chocolate eggs and pieces of chocolate, then leave to set slightly before cutting into slices. Will keep covered and chilled for up to 24 hrs.

CHOCOLATE ROULADE

Steps:

• Place rack in center of oven, and heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter an 11-by-17-inch jelly-roll pan or a 12-by-17 1/2-inch sheet pan, and line with parchment paper.
• In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup cream to a simmer.
• Add chocolate, reduce heat, and whisk until chocolate is melted.
• As soon as mixture is a uniform dark color, remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.
• Whip egg whites and 2 tablespoons sugar to stiff, glossy peaks, about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Whisk one-quarter of the egg-white mixture into the chocolate mixture.
• Gently fold chocolate mixture back into the original egg-white mixture, and mix until smooth and well combined.
• Pour batter into the prepared pan, and spread it in an even layer with a rubber spatula.
• Bake until cake is set and puffy, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Transfer to a wire rack, and cool to room temperature.
• Lift parchment paper to remove cake from pan, and set it on work surface with long side facing edge of table.
• Using a fine-mesh sieve, lightly dust cake with cocoa powder.
• For the crème chantilly, whip the remaining 1 cup cream with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, the vanilla, and cognac.
• Spread evenly over entire surface of cake.
• Roll the cake lengthwise, starting at a point 2 to 3 inches over the crème chantilly.
• Roll cake another few inches, pressing against parchment paper to make a tight spiral.
• Gently peel parchment paper off as cake layer rolls away.
• Complete the roll, stopping at the far edge of the parchment paper.
• Tuck the loose parchment paper around and underneath the cylinder so it is well wrapped and can be moved easily.
• Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
• When ready to serve, transfer roulade to serving platter.
• Remove parchment paper, gently rolling cake into center of platter, with seam on bottom.
• (If roll has slumped or twisted, lay a piece of plastic over top and sides, and reshape with hands.) With a sharp knife, trim both ends of roll crosswise or on a diagonal.
• Dust top with confectioners’ sugar and cocoa powder, and garnish with seasonal fruit.
• To serve, cut the roll into 1-inch-thick slices, and lay flat on dessert plates; top with additional crème chantilly if desired.

PUMPKIN ROULADE WITH MASCARPONE AND WHITE CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a rimmed baking sheet and line with parchment, leaving a slight overhang on short ends. Butter parchment and dust with flour.
• Whisk flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined. Set aside. Lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and dust with 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream eggs and sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy and tripled in volume, about 10 minutes. Reduce speed to low and add pumpkin puree. Mix until combined, about 2 minutes. Turn mixer off and sift half of flour mixture over the top. Gently fold into the batter than repeat with remaining dry mixture. Spread evenly onto prepared baking sheet with an offset spatula and bake until the cake springs back in the center and begins to pull away from edges, about 12 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes then invert onto sugar-dusted towel. Fold the sides of the towel over the cake and gently roll the cake lengthwise. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, bring cream just to a simmer. Pour over white chocolate set in a small bowl, making sure chocolate is fully covered. Let sit 5 minutes. Stir until smooth. In a medium bowl stir mascarpone with a rubber spatula until smooth. Add half the ganache and stir to combine. Repeat with remaining half, then whisk and continue to whip until just beginning to hold soft peaks and the mixture is spreadable. Stir in orange zest. Unroll pumpkin cake and evenly spread 2 cups of filling over the top, leaving a 1/2-inch border on long sides. Gently roll again and place in refrigerator to chill, 15 to 20 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar, slice and serve.

DARK CHOCOLATE & CRANBERRY ROULADE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Butter a large (approx 30cm x 40cm) Swiss roll tin and line the base and sides with baking parchment. Lightly butter the parchment, dust with the plain flour and tip out any excess.
• Sift the self-raising flour, baking powder and cocoa into a bowl and mix in the ground almonds. Put the eggs and caster sugar in a large mixing bowl and beat, using an electric hand-whisk or tabletop mixer, for 5-10 mins until pale, thick and trebled in volume. The mixture should leave a trail when the beaters are lifted out.
• Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture using a large metal spoon. Pour into the prepared tin, then tip the tin from side to side until it is covered in an even layer of batter and the corners are filled. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 12-15 mins or until firm to the touch. Meanwhile, lay a sheet of baking parchment on the work surface and sprinkle with caster sugar.
• Allow the sponge to cool for 1 min before turning out onto the sugared paper. Peel away the backing paper and, with the short side facing you, roll the sponge away from you so that the sugary parchment is rolled inside the roulade. This will help you to fill and roll it later. Set aside until completely cold.
• To make the filling, beat the mascarpone with the orange zest. Unroll the sponge, discard the inside paper and evenly spread the mascarpone over, leaving a finger-width border around the edges. Cover with the cranberry sauce. Using the outside baking paper to help, roll the sponge away from you as tightly as possible. Transfer to a serving platter, cover loosely and chill while you prepare the frosting.
• For the frosting, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of just-simmering water, or microwave on High for 2 mins, stirring halfway through. Set aside for about 10 mins until cooled, but still soft.
• Meanwhile, beat the butter and icing sugar together until pale and smooth. Pour in the chocolate and stir thoroughly to combine. Set aside for 20 mins to firm up slightly before using a palette knife to cover the roulade in frosting. Mark with a fork to create a log effect. To decorate, arrange the cranberries and bay leaves along the length of the log. Dust with a little icing sugar just before serving. Cut into slices, removing cranberries and bay leaves to serve. The roulade can be made up to a day ahead. Take it out of the fridge at least 30 mins before you want to serve it, to allow the filling and icing to soften.
