Gooey Chocolate Caramel Turtle Cake Roll

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

3. Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the oil and vanilla extract, mixing well to combine.

4. Combine & Bake

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir just until incorporated. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and spread it with a spatula. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the cake is set and springs back when lightly touched.

5. Roll the Cake

While the cake is still warm, gently roll it up in the parchment paper and allow it to cool completely. This helps the cake keep its shape without cracking later.

6. Add the Filling

Unroll the cooled cake. Spread a generous layer of caramel sauce over the surface, then sprinkle evenly with the chopped pecans. Carefully re-roll the cake (without the parchment) and place it seam-side down on a serving platter.

7. Make the Ganache
