Cake:
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk
Filling:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.
- Prepare the cake: In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs until thick and pale. Gradually add sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. Fold in the dry ingredients. Pour batter into the pan and bake for 10–12 minutes.
- Roll the cake: Dust a kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Invert the baked cake onto the towel, roll it up, and let it cool.
- Make the filling: Whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Unroll the cake, spread the filling, and roll it back up. Chill before serving.
