- corn starch - 15 g;
- sugar - 60 g;
- vanilla - optional.

Preparation
- First, you need to prepare the custard base for the cream. Mix sugar with starch and vanilla, add milk. Cook the mixture until thick over heat, then cover with plastic wrap in contact and cool to room temperature.
- Then, proceed to prepare the sponge base. Beat the eggs with vanilla, sugar, and salt into a strong and fluffy thick mass. The whisk pattern should be clearly visible on the eggs when the right consistency is reached.
- Sift the mixture of cocoa and flour into the eggs. Gently mix the batter with a spatula.
- Pour the batter onto a flat baking sheet lined with parchment. Spread it into a thin rectangle and place it in a preheated oven at 180 degrees. If using an electric oven, bake for 6-7 minutes on the "top-bottom" mode. In a gas oven, bake longer, about ten minutes. After five minutes of baking, the oven can be opened to check for readiness by inserting a wooden skewer.
- Add soft butter to the cooled custard base along with cocoa. Mix until smooth.
- Roll the hot sponge base into a roll along with the parchment. Wrap the roll in a towel and leave it to cool completely.
- Once the roll cools, unfold the base and remove the parchment. Soak the base with raspberry liqueur or another alcohol. Spread cream over the sponge and roll it up tightly.
- Decorate the top of the roll with cream and chopped nuts. For convenience, the roll can be cut into two smaller pieces.
- The delicious chocolate roll with cream is ready! Enjoy your meal!
This beautiful sweet dessert will captivate you with its simplicity of preparation and exquisite taste. It is quite budget-friendly, very appetizing, and looks amazing when cut. Sponge roll with custard is perfect for both home and festive tea parties.
