Chocolate Roulade Attias Style

Step 1

Line a shallow baking tray with grease proof paper.
Pre heat oven to 160 degrees fahrenheit.

Separate the eggs

Put egg yolks and caster sugar in a bowl and whisk until pale and fluffy and put aside.

Melt chocolate in a bowl over boiling water.

Add the melted chocolate to the egg yolk mixture.

Whisk eggs whites until firm.

Cut and fold the egg whites little by little into the chocolate mixture.

Pour into the shallow lined baking tray and cook for 25 mins.

Once cooked leave to cool.

Take a clean tea towel and wet it with cold water, ring out as much water as possible and lay it over the roulade and place in the fridge over night.

The next day carefully take the tea towel off and sprinkle with icing sugar.

Place a large chopping board on top so you can turn it upside down.

Carefully peel off the grease proof paper.

Whisk the cream with vanilla extract and icing sugar, once fairly firm spread it over the roulade and roll gently.
