All of them love the cake and I confess that it disappears in a moment. Soon it occurred me that this would be a perfect dessert for Christmas table.

How to make this Keto Chocolate Roll Cake?
When I’m making cakes I like to mix the wet ingredients and the dry ingredients separately and then add the wet to the dry ingredients.
After you mix the batter, spread evenly into a 15 x 30 baking pan that you lined with parchment paper with a misting of baking spray.
Once the cake is done baking, filled it with the mascarpone cream filling.
The most important thing is that you roll the cake up while it’s still hot. DO NOT skip this step or it will crack all over when you try to roll it later. Roll it up hot, let it cool.
And even if the cake doesn’t come out as perfectly, we can always cover the whole thing in frosting, sprinkles or powdered sugar.
Don’t be afraid of making cake rolls. I know some people are terrified to even give it a try. This recipe is really quite easy and It rolls up really well and forms no cracks! I made a video to help you make this amazing cake.
This is the most perfectly moist and chocolatey roll cake. The creamy mascarpone filling is so light and balances well the richness of the cake. It is perfection in each and every bite!
