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.

December 12th, 2008 at 11:26 amSounds wonderful.
December 12th, 2008 at 11:24 amThis is a great way to serve ice cream. You can have your cake and eat it too. It’s going to be a tough decision to vote for only one of these four finalists. My choice will be the one that makes my mouth water the most.
December 12th, 2008 at 11:17 amThis sounds delicious and looks great and will try this one for the holidays.
December 12th, 2008 at 9:45 amLove cake roll, bet it would be great with any of the Turkey Hill ice creams.
December 12th, 2008 at 9:20 amYUM YUM!
I’m just sorry there are only 12 days of ice cream when there are more days in the month. Can’t wait to try these receipes.
December 12th, 2008 at 9:12 amSay, will the puzzle melt?
This looks really yummy, I am going to make this next week for the office Christmas Party…
December 12th, 2008 at 8:30 amAll the recipes sound delicious but this one is my favorite! Nothing better than mint & chocolate! I’ve made the roll cakes before so will definitely try this one with the TH ice cream,,,, Yummmmm
December 12th, 2008 at 8:10 amthat looks wonderful and yummy!
December 12th, 2008 at 8:04 amLooks delicious, but then anything with Turkey Hill is great. Linda
December 12th, 2008 at 7:59 amWow, this looks so good and I can’t wait to try it. It would be great to serve at a holiday party.
December 12th, 2008 at 6:32 amOh 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.
December 12th, 2008 at 2:35 amOn 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!
yup the peppemint roll left me rolling in memories of being a kid again and reveling in the fun of licking ice cream from a cone around and around and around and…
December 11th, 2008 at 11:07 pmDessert is never too much work… It just makes it sweeter
December 11th, 2008 at 10:40 pmnot much on rolled cakes though I wil have to try this one sonds scrumpcious
December 11th, 2008 at 10:36 pmI’ve never had much luck with cake rolls, but I’m gonna give this one a try. Bet it’s good with the eggnog ice cream,too. That will give me a chance to make two of them!
December 11th, 2008 at 10:14 pmOh Yeah
December 11th, 2008 at 8:05 pmchocolate and mint…life is good!
December 11th, 2008 at 5:25 pmcan hardly wait to try it

Hopefully my story can inspire you to try my method and lose some weight!

December 11th, 2008 at 5:20 pmWell, I’ve vote for my choice but it was so hard as they were all great. Of course, anything that has TH in it has to be delicious.
December 11th, 2008 at 2:00 pmit works for me.
December 11th, 2008 at 11:34 amalso thankyou for the Turkey Hill calendar.its great.
I’m getting fat just looking at that, Yummy!
December 11th, 2008 at 10:11 amThis looks yummy!! I will have to try it out. I’m sure my family will be happy to taste test for me!
December 11th, 2008 at 10:10 amSounds 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!
December 11th, 2008 at 10:08 amI’m drooling. I’m going to have to try this out!! I’m sure I’ll find a few guinea pigs in my house to taste test!
December 11th, 2008 at 10:08 amI sounds wonderful, but so much work!
December 11th, 2008 at 10:04 amOn the 1st day of Ice Cream, Turkey Hill gave to me, Some Ice Cream for my Christmas Tree!
