This week we’re looking for your favorite Christmas cookies recipes!
Before we start, let’s congratulate last week’s pie party winners!
I was given a free sample of Hershey’s Spreads chocolate flavor because I’m a Klout Influencer. I am under no obligation to receive the sample or talk about this company. I get no additional benefits for talking about the product or company.
Does it show that I’m partial to Hershey’s Dark Chocolate products? Well maybe a little. When I received my Klout perk from Hershey’s I needed to get the rest of the family out of my cupboards. I mean the Hershey’s Dark Chocolate products not my family, they don’t hide in the cupboards, except maybe sometimes the cat trys. Anyway, I wanted to do something more with this chocolaty goodness than cover toast or crackers.
When you crack open the package you immediately want to spread it on something. Nutella move over, chocolate is here to play.
So I started paging through cookbooks and an old favorite caught my eye. Cake roll. I’ve made jelly rolls, pumpkin cream cheese rolls, chocolate cake and buttercream rolls. Now I was ready to try a coffee flavored cake base with new Hershey’s Chocolate Spread roll.
It turned out fantastic!
Ingredients
Grease and flour a jelly roll pan.
Beat eggs on medium speed until thick and lemony colored.
Gradually add the sugar.
Mix in coffee and vanilla.
Add flour, baking powder and salt.
Pour into prepared jelly-roll pan and bake at 375 for about 12 minutes. Cake should be done but not overly baked.
Turn cake out onto a towel coated with powdered sugar.
Spread cake with Hershey’s Spread.
Roll towel down to where cake the starts. Gently roll the cake inside the towel. Tuck the towel around the cake and cool before unrolling.
Place cake on a plate or board.
Dust with powdered sugar and cocoa.
Serve with Hershey’s Syrup if desired.
