INGREDIENTS

- 4 eggs
- 1 2/3 dl almond flour
- ½ dl Use like sugar
- 1 tbsp fiberhusk
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 crumbs vanilla powder
Chocolate filling:
- 125 g mascarpone

INSTRUCTIONS
Cake:
Preheat the oven to
175°C. Mix the eggs and Use Like Sugar with an electric mixer for a minute
until fluffy. In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients, then fold them into
the egg mixture.
Place a sheet of
parchment paper on a baking tray, spreading the batter into a 20x30 cm
rectangle. Avoid spreading too thin; keeping it a bit thicker prevents
cracking. Bake in the middle of the oven for 12-15 minutes.
Once done, transfer the
cake (with parchment paper) to another piece of parchment paper and let it sit
for a few minutes. Gently peel off the original paper.
Chocolate Filling:
Carefully melt the butter
and chocolate until smooth. An easy method is to do this in the microwave in a
bowl. Once melted, stir in the mascarpone and Use Like Sugar, blending until
smooth.
Spread the filling evenly
over the cake. If the filling is too firm to spread, warm it slightly to
soften.
Assembly:
Roll the cake from one
short end to the other, keeping the roll thick but not too tight. Wrap the roll
in plastic wrap and let it set in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
When ready to serve, slice the roll, place on a serving plate, and top with fresh berries, lemon balm, and chopped chocolate. Enjoy this light Swiss roll without any added sugar!
