Chocolate Cream Cheese Log

Serves 12

1/2 cup unbleached white flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
4 eggs, whites and yolks separated
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup unbleached evaporated cane juice sugar, divided

Cream Cheese Filling
16 oz organic cream cheese, very soft
1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar, more or less to taste
1/4 tsp mint extract (optional) OR 1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Line a jelly roll pan (15x10x1-inch) with natural wax paper and spray it with canola oil cooking spray. Be sure to spray up the sides of the pan as well. Set aside.

Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, beat yolks and vanilla at high speed with an electric mixer for 3 minutes or until thickened and light in color. Gradually beat in 6 tablespoons of the cane sugar.

In a large mixing bowl, beat egg whites to form soft peaks. Gradually add the remaining 6 tablespoons of the cane sugar to form stiff peaks. Gently fold yolk mixture into the egg whites. Add the flour mixture and gently fold in. Spread the batter onto the prepared pan.

Bake for 15 minutes or until done when tested with a toothpick. Let the cake sit in the pan for 5 minutes then using a knife, loosen the sides of the cake from the pan and transfer the cake onto a clean surface. A counter will do. Starting from the long end, gently roll the cake up, leaving the wax paper intact. You will have a 15" long roll at this point. Let it sit for 5 minutes rolled up.

Blend all cream cheese filling ingredients together. Unroll the cake and spread with the cream cheese filling. Spread filling to ends of cake.

Carefully re-roll the cake into a Yule Log, this time peeling off the wax paper. Cut the cake in half. Sprinkle with powdered sugar for garnish.

To serve, slice the cake and put servings on plates.
