Ingredients

  • 1 sheet sponge cake sheet
  • ½ cup strong brewed coffee
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, mix the 0.5 cup strong brewed coffee with 1 tbsp of the powdered sugar until dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, beat the 1 cup mascarpone, 0.5 cup heavy cream, and remaining 3 tbsp powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Lay the 1 sponge cake sheet flat and brush the top evenly with the coffee mixture. Spread the cream mixture over the top, leaving a 1-inch border.

  4. 4

    Roll the cake tightly from one short end, using the parchment to help. Place seam-side down on a plate.

  5. 5

    Dust the roll generously with the 2 tbsp cocoa powder. Slice and serve chilled.
