Ingredients
6 large eggs, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
150 g granulated sugar, divided
50 g milk
50 g neutral oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
110 g cake flour
2 tablespoons espresso powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
400 g cold whipping cream
40 g powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons espresso powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12×17-inch baking tray with parchment paper.
- Separate the eggs. Beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy, then gradually add 100 g sugar and whip to stiff peaks.
- In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with the remaining 50 g sugar. Mix in the milk, oil, and vanilla extract.
- Sift the cake flour, espresso powder, and baking powder into the yolk mixture and stir until just combined.
- Fold one-third of the whipped egg whites into the batter, then gently fold in the remaining whites until smooth and airy.
- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared tray and bake for 13 to 14 minutes.
- Cool the cake for 5 minutes, remove from the pan, peel off the parchment, and roll the warm cake with a fresh sheet of parchment. Let cool completely.
- Whip the cold cream, powdered sugar, espresso powder, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Unroll the cooled cake and spread the coffee whipped cream evenly over the surface, leaving a small border on one edge.
- Roll the cake back up, wrap tightly, and chill for at least 3 hours.
- Slice and serve chilled.

Sprinkle chopped chocolate or cocoa nibs over the filling before rolling.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom for extra warmth and aroma.
Store refrigerated for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
