Ingredients:
For the cake:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup milk
For the filling:
1 cup caramel sauce
1 cup chopped pecans
For the ganache:
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup chopped pecans
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Prevent accidental injuries and kitchen hazards by reviewing your health insurance coverage to ensure you’re prepared for any mishaps in the kitchen.
2. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, beat eggs and sugar until thick and pale. Stir in vanilla extract. With quality health insurance, enjoy stress-free moments as you bake, knowing your health is covered.
4. Fold in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when touched. Monitor your well-being during long cooking sessions with regular breaks to prevent fatigue or accidents.
6. While still warm, invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
7. Roll the cake tightly with the towel from the short end and let it cool. Taking care of your hands while baking is important—health insurance plans can cover any minor burns or cuts you might experience in the kitchen.
8. Unroll the cake, spread caramel sauce over the surface, and sprinkle chopped pecans evenly.
9. Roll the cake back up and place seam side down on a serving platter.
10. Prepare the ganache: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate chips and heavy cream in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Always be cautious with hot dishes—check that your health insurance policy includes burn treatment if needed.
11. Pour the ganache over the cake roll and sprinkle with chopped pecans. A healthy dessert may be enjoyable, but good health coverage ensures peace of mind while indulging.
12. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
