Ingredients:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup cocoa powder
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 4 large eggs
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup vegetable oil
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup caramel sauce
– 1/2 cup pecan halves, chopped
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
– Extra pecan halves for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
2. In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Mix in the vegetable oil and vanilla extract until well combined.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
6. Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake is set.
8. While the cake is still warm, carefully roll it up in the parchment paper and let it cool completely.
9. Once cooled, unroll the cake and spread the caramel sauce evenly over it. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.
10. Roll the cake back up, this time without the parchment paper, and place it seam-side down.
11. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it begins to simmer. Pour it over the chocolate chips and let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth.
12. Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the cake roll and garnish with extra pecan halves.
13. Allow the cake to set before slicing and serving.
