RECIPE CONTEST FINALIST #4: CHOCOLATE PEPPERMINT STICK ROLL

Posted by: Turkey Hill Team

The following recipe is the final of four finalists in our Ultimate Holiday Recipe Contest, which challenged Turkey Hill fans to submit recipes using our two seasonal ice cream flavors, Peppermint Stick and Egg Nog. The other finalists will be posted on the Ice Cream Journal this week and voting for the winner will begin on Thursday, with the winner receiving a one year’s supply of Turkey Hill Ice Cream. The other three finalists will all receive a one month supply of ice cream. Congrats to them, and enjoy the recipes!

You’ve heard of jelly rolls and pumpkin rolls. Welcome to the Chocolate Peppermint Stick Roll. Trust us (because we’ve tasted it), It puts all of those other rolls to shame. This chilly holiday recipe was submitted by Patti S. of Schenectady, NY.

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 eggs, separated
1 tablespoons cold water
1/2 cup plus 1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Approximately 1/3 cup confectioners sugar
Turkey Hill Peppermint Stick Limited Edition Premium Ice Cream
Hot fudge sauce (optional topping)
Whipped cream (optional topping)

DIRECTIONS

1. Grease and flour a 15×10 jelly roll pan.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

3. Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt.

4. In a large mixing bowl combine egg whites and water .Beat until frothy. Gradually add ½ cup sugar until stiff and glossy.

5. In a small bowl beat egg yolks until thickened, about 3 minutes.  Gradually add 1/3 cup sugar. Add vanilla.

6. Fold egg yolk mixture into egg white mixture, then fold in dry ingredients until blended.  Do not overmix!
7. Spread batter evenly over jelly roll pan.

8. Bake 12-15 minutes until center springs back when lightly touched.

9. Sprinkle a clean dish towel with confectioners sugar.  Turn cake onto towel.

10. While cake is hot, roll up the cake and towel together and let stand for 1-2 minutes.  Unroll and allow steam to escape. Reroll and allow to cool.

11. When cooled, open cake and fill with Turkey Hill Peppermint Stick Limited Edition Premium Ice Cream (to within 1/2 inch of edges).  Ice cream should be soft enough to spread. Reroll and place in freezer.

12. When ready to serve, let stand out of freezer briefly prior to cutting your slices.

13. Serve with hot fudge sauce and whipped cream.

Oh looks yummy but I truly am horrible with cake rolls. I made a bundt cake and squeezed TH peppermint icecream at the top with a pastry bag, then sliced that section. Tasted good I’m told.
On the second day of Ice Cream Turkey Hill gave to me 2 christmas green ice cream scoopers and some ice cream for my christmas tree.
Lol!

Sounds really yummy! I believe the main reason for having cake so to have something to go with the ice cream. This recipe wraps the ice cream right inside!
