PORTIONS: 10
ORGANIC INGREDIENTS
- 105 g (3/4 cup) all-purpose flour "La Merveilleuse"
- 30 g (1/3 cup) cocoa
- 5 ml (1 tsp) baking powder
- A pinch of salt
- 3 large eggs, separated
- 2.5 ml (1/2 tsp) cream of tartar
- 160 g (1/2 cup) maple syrup
- 75 ml (5 tbsp) water
- 5 ml (1 tsp) vanilla extract
- Topping of your choice (raspberries, strawberries, cherries)
- Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe
PREPARATION
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C).
- In a bowl, sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the center and add the egg yolks, maple syrup, water and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer at maximum speed or in a stand mixer with a flat paddle at medium speed, about 5 minutes.
- In another bowl, beat the egg whites. Start gently, add the cream of tartar, then beat at maximum speed until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the first mixture with a spatula.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread the dough with a spatula evenly to make a rectangle of 25 cm x 35 cm (10 x 14 inches).
- Bake on the centre rack of the oven for about 12 to 13 minutes, or until a slight pressure of the finger leaves no mark.
- Place on a dishcloth that has been sprinkled with icing sugar. Gently remove the parchment paper, roll the cake without tightening too much and let stand for 4 minutes.
- Unroll the cake, spread the filling and roll again. Allow to cool for 3 hours.
- Then prepare the ice cream and as soon as it is ready, spread it on the log.
- Decorate to taste with chocolate shavings, then place in the freezer in an airtight container.
TO SERVE: Remove the log from the freezer and leave it at room temperature for about 15 minutes or until it is easily sliced.
