Mocha Roll Cake
I have to admit, baking is not easy. I still dream of baking a beautiful cake someday but I don't have the patience to perfect decorating one for now. I've always liked rolled cakes but for the longest time I feared baking cakes. I started learning to bake rolled cakes about 2 yrs. ago and it took me about 5 times to get it right. I am now almost always expected to make a roll cake in every family event. It is not as time consuming but being able to not crack/split the cake after rolling it is still a challenge. I love coffee so I almost always make the mocha flavor. I use 2 shots of espresso for the cake. Drip coffee won't really do since the chocolate flavor would over power the coffee.
