Description

A sweet dessert roll cake featuring pistachio flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup ground pistachios
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped pistachios for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 10×15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until pale and thick, about 5 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ground pistachios, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture in three additions until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cake springs back lightly when touched.
  7. While the cake bakes, place a clean kitchen towel on your counter and dust it lightly with powdered sugar.
  8. Immediately invert the hot cake onto the sugared towel. Peel off the parchment paper.
  9. Starting from a short end, carefully roll the cake and towel together. Let it cool completely in this rolled shape on a wire rack.
  10. For the filling, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  11. Once the cake is cool, gently unroll it. Spread the whipped cream filling evenly over the cake surface, leaving a small border.
  12. Reroll the cake tightly, without the towel.
  13. Dust the top with extra powdered sugar and sprinkle with chopped pistachios before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond flour for a portion of the all-purpose flour for a richer nut flavor.
  • Chill the filling ingredients before whipping for best results.
