Gooey Chocolate Caramel Turtle Cake Roll

A decadent chocolate cake roll filled with gooey caramel, pecans, and chocolate for the ultimate turtle-inspired dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • 1 cup caramel sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  2. Beat eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale. Add cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt, mixing well.
  3. Sift flour and baking powder together, then fold into the egg mixture until just combined.
  4. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cake springs back when touched.
  5. Dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Invert the warm cake onto the towel, peel off parchment, and roll cake up in the towel. Let cool completely.
  6. Unroll the cooled cake, spread caramel sauce evenly, then sprinkle pecans and chocolate chips. Re-roll tightly without the towel.
  7. Chill for 1 hour before slicing. Drizzle with extra caramel and chocolate if desired.

Notes
