Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
Directions
1- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2- Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
4- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5- Combine Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool slightly in the pan.
7- Prepare Filling: While the cake cools, make the peanut butter filling. In a medium bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until well combined.
8- Roll the Cake: Once the cake is cool, carefully invert it onto a clean kitchen towel that has been dusted with cocoa powder. Gently peel off the parchment paper. Spread the peanut butter filling evenly over the cake. Starting from one edge, carefully roll the cake into a log shape, using the towel to guide you.
9- Chill and Serve: Wrap the cake roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour. Slice and serve, enjoying every decadent bite.
