Ingredients

Coffee liqueur: 4 tbsp
Unsalted butter: 50 gm
Breakfast sugar (granulated sugar): 100 gm
Eggs: 2 large
All-purpose flour: 1 cup
Mascarpone cheese: 125 gm
Whipped cream: 150 ml
Coffee powder: 2 tbsp
Castor sugar (superfine sugar): 2 tbsp
Cocoa powder: 2 tbsp
Chocolate curls, for garnish: 20 gm

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 180°C. Grease and line a 30cm x 20cm Swiss roll tray with greaseproof paper.

Using an electric whisk, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture becomes pale in color.

Add the eggs and whisk again until the mixture is well combined.

Sift the all-purpose flour and cocoa powder over the mixture and gently fold them in. Pour this batter into the prepared tray.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until the sponge turns golden and has risen.

While the sponge is baking, prepare a coffee syrup. In a small saucepan, combine four tablespoons of coffee liqueur, two tablespoons of superfine sugar, and 75 ml of water. Bring it to a boil, then simmer for about five minutes until the syrup thickens.

Once the sponge is done baking, peel away the greaseproof paper from one end. Brush the sponge generously with the coffee syrup.

In a separate bowl, blend the mascarpone cheese, coffee powder, and whipped cream until well combined.

Spread this mascarpone mixture evenly over the sponge.

Carefully roll the sponge starting from one end and rolling all the way to the other end, creating a Swiss roll. Stop rolling when the seam of the roll is at the bottom.

Dust the top of the roll with cocoa powder and scatter chocolate curls as garnish.

Slice and serve your delicious coffee Swiss roll.
