German Chocolate Coconut Pecan Roll Cake Delight

A decadent roll cake filled with rich German chocolate, toasted coconut, and pecans for a delightful dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, toasted
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted
  • 1 cup German chocolate frosting

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. In a large bowl, beat eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
  3. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold into the egg mixture until smooth.
  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 and carefully peel off the parchment paper.
  6. Roll the cake and towel together from the short side. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. Unroll the cake and spread German chocolate frosting evenly over the surface. Sprinkle toasted coconut and pecans on top.
  8. Re-roll the cake without the towel. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
